The first few days without Facebook was hard. Everytime I opened my Google Chrome, my fingers would automatically type www.fac...... Then it would take a few seconds for me to realize that I have deactivated it! Then I would (feeling slightly sad, of course) close the window and look for something else to browse.
I am actually not really planning on reactivating my Facebook account anytime soon. I mean, surprisingly, I don’t need Facebook as much as I thought I did. I used to think I absolutely needed it to be able to contact with people. Facebook inbox is so effective I usually would just use it to send messages. But now that I think about it, if you ever really needed to contact me, I still use my e-mail, as well as my cell phone, so there is no reason for you not to reach me! For those who think: “What if I don’t have your email or your number?” Well seriously then are those people really worth contacting?
Of course, this is just from my point of view. I still think Facebook is one of the greatest network websites ever invented! It is just taking up way too much of my time right now.
What are your thoughts on Facebook? Praise or trash?
you know, i have realized that i don't like facebook as much as i thought myself. mine is not deactivated, but i find that i rarely go on there as much as i used to.
ReplyDeletewhat got you to start blogging?!? i see this was your very first post :) xo
Thanks for your sweet comment on my lil' blog--I'm new at the whole blogging thing. And I'm super addicted to blogger now, lol! My Facebook has been put on the back burner lately...I won't deactivate it anytime soon--but I feel it's been kind of blah lately and I'd much rather be reading my favorite blogs anyway ♥ Have an awesome day! And welcome to Blogger!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your sweet words! Yes, I do speak German and you totally made sense! Haha
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big Facebook fan. I have an account, but I rarely use it.
WOW you are doing so good without facebook, I seriously could not do that! I don't spend a ton of time on there, but enough that is not good! I hope that it goes well for you!
ReplyDeletexoxo
AH! I tried doing that one time and it didn't work. I think about it often but sometimes I'm nosey and want to know what's going on! ha
ReplyDeleteYou know, I hate Facebook because it is such a distraction, but it is such a great way to see what up with people these days...other people lives are so interesting or is that just me?
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the blog love!

I have never been a big Facebook user myself. I'm lucky if I remember to log in once every week. :P
ReplyDeleteI use facebook way too much! But it's totally made my business what it is today! It's great for things like that. I wish I could deactivate it sometimes though ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy blogging!
Mixed feelings. I like posting photos to share with friends and family. But I've been disgusted with it too. Now that I get it on my phone, I spend way too much time on it!
ReplyDeleteThank you or your lovely comment on my blog! You're so sweet.
ReplyDeleteI am currently on a facebook fast (for lent). I've deactivated my facebook twice before and every time, it was kind of refreshing. Now when I go on facebook, it doesn't take up my time like before.
I sort of hate it now too. It just feels pointless sometimes. I love talking to my closest friends on it and staying in touch, but I can't stand how other people update their status with the most irrelevant things.
Idk, it's a love/hate thing with facebook. Lol.
And I love that you admitted that you stalk people on fb. I DO TOO! Hahahaha.

ahh goodluck, actually ever since I started blogging I've found myself away from facebook. But i do enjoy letting my fellow friends know when I have a new blog post up through facebook, it's great for networking and blog exposure.
