Social Networking CPL 2.0

I have a love-hate relationship with Facebook. Where to start? (sound of finger joints cracking)

I like to look at how everyone is doing, i.e. the people that I know, but I don't want to be friends or share my privacy with a whole bunch of people that I don't know just because they know someone, who knows someone - unless maybe it's Keanu Reeves or one of the Fiennes brothers (God, how old am I?!).

We were just going through Facebook, helping another person get into it, and it is impossible to sort through all of the postings that everyone in the entire world has left on the site. I realized that I didn't even leave a message on the library wall, but even if I did, no one would see the tree for the forest. (I will go and do one now.)

Postsecret: I am a "bad" friend because I spend a lot of time on the computer at both my jobs and in my class. Ergo, I don't want to spend any more time on the computer when I am off regardless of who tries to e-connect with me...
