ML>ML> TW> Sorry I don't do Facebook   
      
   ML>ML>you don't have to have a FB account to view someone's pictures or   
   ML>ML>other cont   
   ML>ML>if they make it available to everyone...   
      
   ML> TW> the picture in quesation that I was refered to was NOT public   
      
   ML>at that time, yes... but still... the blanket statement of "i don't do   
   ML>facebook" was what i was aiming at... it doesn't matter if "you" have a FB   
   ML>account or not... the statement implys that "you" wouldn't "go there" even i   
   ML>the item of discussion was public and open to everyone...   
      
   TRUE, BUT that does not mean I don't like Faceboob but jsut see NO use   
   for it for ME.   
      
   ML>ML>besides, FB isn't "that bad" and one only need use common sense   
   ML>ML>just like in any other area so as to stay out of the bad stuff...   
      
   ML> TW> I did not imply that it was Bad, Just that I don't do facebook.   
      
   ML>i guess this is a simple matter of perspective, then... see above for furthe   
   ML>clarification...

   ML>then i found not only the networking aspect (ie: networking with those aroun   
   ML>you) but also the games and other services FB offers... if i had to offer a   
   ML>guess, i'd say that i now spend <80% of my time (outside of other activities   
   ML>on FB simply because it offers a much larger audience than any BBS can or ha   
   ML>ever offered...   
      
   ML>there are times that i share items of interest (to me) that other might be   
   ML>interested in that would never have been posted on any BBS... articles from   
   ML>"the register", nasa, various government entities, and even just plain old   
   ML>funnt stuff like that posted on damnyouautocorrect.com (which has screenshot   
   ML>of text messages from smartphones where the automatic spelling correction ha   
   ML>"twisted" words into something "else" quite unintended ;)   
      
   And I can see the need for that in some lives. JUST not Mine!!
