Twitter, Facebook, Deadhead........It's not as expensive as cocain but it sure leaves the serius user with that same dull, glaced-over eye look..... :(

Don't underestimate the power of Face book, its great when you have employees.  So is Myspy... I mean Myspace.  When your staff call in sick with a bad flu, you can log in and see the comments from their friends "How are you feeling? You were so drunk last night when we left you hanging onto the bar".  Or the "My job/boss sucks".

Also great if you need to know what your teenage kids are up to.  As firko said, you know the last time they farted.

Firko, you probably don't want to hear it ::) but I agree with you wholeheartedly.  :D

I dabbled a little with FaceBook and My Space thinking it was a way to keep up with my children and nieces and nephews etc. I concluded it was too much like hard work and too trivial - minimal return for effort. 

I use emails and CC's to keep up with my family and extended family and use it specifically as required - works well, both to and from. And I use forums. That is more than enough time spent for me.

Basically there is just too much information out there - I've got to manage it and make choices.

Mike52 has the right idea, alias's are a must in cyber world. it is true some employers do check up on staff and so do the undesirable element of society looking to make your loss their gain ie some of the threads on this site have us talking about our collections and when we will be away at meetings etc etc. Now imagine if we did not have alias's and our info was out there we would be ripe for the picking. Most of us know who we are talking to so there is no need to let the world know who we really are. its not their business its private. that's my 2c worth having said that each to there own :P

I agree with what the majority of you out there think. I got on facebook after being told by the 'younger set' that  I should. The next day I looked at it there was this message telling me that these two hot chicks wanted to be my friends. I immediately said to myself 'self i've put down that I'm 72 and married with six grand  kids and here's two hot babes after me, what IS this shit?' Then started to notice all this weird fighting and arguing amongst family and their friends so talked to myself again and said 'I'm outa here and deleted my face book connection which by the way they make hard to do. cheers pancho
dont follow me i'm probably off line!
