Are You on MyFace?

[bluejeans07]

Internets, I ask you: do I really NEED a Facebook account?

I already have two different LJ accounts, a myspace account, a twitter account and a LinkedIn account, not to mention accounts on blogger and deviantart (which I don't use but have). All these social networking sites and I still get scolded because I don't have a Facebook account! "Everyone's on Facebook, Jean." Well, no, not everyone, because I'M not on it. :P Ilana, my greatest ally in this has buckled and submitted to the Facebook craze. Wah.

Personally, I think I social network enough. But if it's really going to be extremely beneficial to me then I'd get it, but if not, I'm happy where I am. I have too many accounts to things already. :P

Seeing as I have a facebook account of course I will pressure you into getting one. LOL. I actually joined facebook back when it was then a college only networking site, which for me at the time seemed good to keep a handle on all the friends I was making at Pepperdine.

What I love most about facebook is the plethora of sharing photos and determining the privacy settings as to who can and who can't see them. Like someone said earlier ignore all those apps that other people try to get you to add and you're mostly fine.

I don't have a myspace cuz I always thought the layout was ugly (and plus I already have a professional website now abcmezzo.com) and twitter just never appealed to me.

Now I still keep my LJ but that's primarily because at the time most of my friends who had one never had a facebook account, but honestly I like journaling every now and then because it's more private to me then on facebook. But hey, do what tickles your fancy. I merely want you to join for my own selfish reasons ^_^
