I started off into a strange new world. It is called Facebook. I stayed away as long as I could but I was finally drawn into the black hole. It can consume everything including the light of day. It is an extreme obsession with many of its users. I can feel the temptation.
It is nice to chat with old friends from my youth. I enjoy that part. They usually don’t come a calling here in Ramblin’ Dan, so Facebook is a good thing. Facebook is totally designed around the “friends” concept. I like that I can turn off all the silly stuff and time wasters that seem to be a big part of the service. I waste enough time already. 🙂
It is definitely a place to find old friends and I choose my friends. If I don’t know someone, they WILL be ignored. I am not going for the record length friends list. Don’t try to sell me anything.
I will still post most of my lengthy rhetoric here in Rambin’ Dan. I have a link from here to my notes in Facebook. I also show this as my webpage although I have several others.
I will not let Facebook become my instant chat room. It has a lot of my attention for now since it is new, but I intend and have already started to wean myself off the chocolate. This posting in Ramblin’ Dan is the first step.
So, it is a cool place. It can become an obsession. Life is full of choices. Time spent is continuous and is non refundable.
