List of my thoughts at the moment

Published by milo at 1:22 pm under Uncategorized

Things I hate but I do:

  1. myspace
  2. facebook

Things I like but no one else does:

  1. blogger
  2. wordpress
  3. flickr

Social networking sites are retarded! We’re not in 8th grade anymore. I don’t wish to poke, or super-poke, or nudge, or any of that other facebook crap … nor do I wish to be inundated with semi-pornographic and/or singles online dating ads over at myspace. I’m an adult. I still very much wish to keep up with every one’s life, I just want to do it in a manner fitting my age. But of course I’m locked into that crap cause that’s what everybody does.

    I wish to be the first to comment on this…Yes! Yes! and again…Yes!

    I will be the first to admit however that I am horrible at keeping up with my blogspot, and that I check my facebook all the time because that is where everyone else is…

    i’m just going to be brutally inquisitive for a second here. you have been talking about how much you hate these websites for many a year…and continue to frequent them. is this how it’s going to be forever? or is there a satisfactory conclusion in sight?

    just wondering. if not, i’ll just keep reading and being amused.

    love you babyface.

    p.s. i love flickr. in fact this might be enough incentive for me to use it more.

    and you never comment on my blogger. i’m done now.

    ;)

    “is this how it’s going to be forever?” – no, your right. I should set a cut off age for myself. On my 40th birthday or before – no more social networking sites for me :)

    Poop! I don’t believe it :) And Merc – I comment on your blogger so you better keep posting…. or i’ll cry :)

    Hey Guyz,
    I’m not sure about the rest of you but I left myspace and facebook and things like that behind when I was like 16 LOL :-) anyway as far as keeping in touch I just made my own web site which people seldome read but I love doing it… Well it is a dilema my site will never be as popular as the BOUGHT OUT MYSPACE or the soon to be BOUGHT OUT FACE BOOK… LOl companies buy these sites to do 2 things. barrage you with advertisments (mostly for porn or porn dating) and to study your likes and dislikes. Its one huge database of information on the rising consumer. Pretty bright on the part of a few EXTREMELY WEALTHY white guyz LOL. Anyway when you are done checking your myspace come visit my site http://WWW.GioandJax.com

    Enjoy

    :-)
    Gio

    PS (this is my longest post ever recorded)

    Flickr’s good because it’s free photo gallery space and it allows comments.

  12. # Morganon 29 Apr 2008 at 1:50 pm

    Picasa has free gallery space (up to a gig, and that’s growing) and allows comments too, so I think I need more positive reasons…

  13. # Proon 29 Apr 2008 at 3:54 pm

    Yes, but I can’t comment on your picasa without getting my own membership – very frustrating…

  14. # miloon 29 Apr 2008 at 4:13 pm

    wife … that’s true for flickr as well. My thinking is that picassa is probably exactly the same, the biggest difference being the popularity of flickr is much greater than picassa.

    remember taking pictures on a 35 mm film or 20 or whatever that other one was, and taking it in to get developed, and picking it up a week later, and then if you wanted to share it with anyone you put it an envelope marked “Do not bend”, and put it in the mail box and sent it out and a few days later they got to see it too? thats cool. I think we should all start doing it that way again…

    Yeah, I’m suffering from social network fatigue myself. I already deleted my MySpace account (I have a barebones account just in case I need to be logged in for something… but I have no presence on there).

    Flickr is for photos… I don’t use for social networking or I’ll start hating IT, too.

    I am resisting Twitter… but I don’t even know why I’m feeling pressured. It seems that all it is is basically the “status” feature in Facebook, and that’s it!?

    These things are dominated by people without jobs, anyway.

    i agree about twitter … i’ll have the shortest lived account in history :)
