Question Facebook & Twitter

Just curious, who is still NOT ON Facebook & Twitter? Who loves/can't live without their FB or Tweets?

I have a FB account, but I rarely go on it or post. I'm just not a fan. Call me a lunatic stuck in 1995. I have even considered DELETING my account (gasp OMG). There is only so much status updates I can take of men/women declaring how much they love their "significant" other

I do not have, and will never have a Twitter account. I don't think I am that important where people want to know what I am doing several times/day. Unfortunately, I don't know Charlie Sheen or Ashton Kutcher.

Have a good day everyone

Natasha

I had a Facebook account when it was only for college students. I left in 2009 when I had a few federal job interviews. It was getting obnoxious anyway.

I don't have a Twitter account, either. It's not for me. I rarely have anything captivating to say.

I have an FB account and enjoy it. I used to be "addicted" and would spend waaay too much time on it. I've recently broken that BAAAD habit and don't spend NEARLY as much time on it as I used to but still go on for a few minutes a day and that's enough.

Never had a Twitter account. Just not interested.

I'm not a fan of facebook. I have an account because that was the only way I could see photos of my dog playing at doggie daycare. I know, I can't help it....my human children have grown and now I have fur children.
My sister is very active on facebook, and convinced me to befriend her. I get messages in my facebook from her friends. It's weird. I don't like it..

Myself, I'm on FB which allowed me to reconnect with friends/former classmates from over 30 years ago whom I've seen many since then. Twitter, I shut it down recently cause it was not useful. Linked In is big for me as well as Indeed.com to find a new job.
With that being stated, I try to limit my time on the computer and use it for fitness (here), finances, friends and professional reasons.

I have an FB account, but I swear I deactivate it and then start it again...One of these times it will be deactivated for good.

Twitter....nope,,,just cannot get into it.

I do have FB but I often wonder why. The drama is beyond ridiculous sometimes.
Never have been interested in Twitter because I also don't think people want to hear about my everyday humdrum.

I still like Facebook. I guess I'm just lucky that I don't see a lot of drama with my friends and family. Of course I "only" have about 140 friends, not 800 like younger people.

That said, I actually much prefer myfitnesspal.com. I actually check that first every day!

Twitter is another story. It's totally useless to me.

I peeked at Pinterest but decided I just don't have time for more online commitments. I can barely keep up here and at VF.

I have Facebook and really like it. I check it a few times a day. After college, my friends and I were all scattered across the country. It's been wonderful to stay in touch, share websites/blogs, pictures, recipes... it's great!

I haven't had any problems with drama. I see hints of drama amongst my youngest "friends", mostly former students, but I just ignore it or hide it.

I don't have a Twitter and have very little interest in it.
