Well, I've finally broken. This afternoon I joined Facebook. After numerous requests from friends and associates and my steadfast refusal to be part of a fad, I have finally caved. My sister is probably the only person in the world that can get me to do things I don't want to do, so when she asked me to sign up my remaining resolve crumbled like the proverbial beach shack in a tsunami.
One of my main reasons for not joining Facebook was because I don't like the idea of people being able to track me unless I want to be tracked. So what is one of the first things I do upon signing up? I enter in the names of ex-girlfriends to see if they are members! Yes I did the very thing that was a reason for me not joining this kind of social networking site. The strangest part is that I did this despite having no desire to actually add them to my friends list. I do have waaaaaaaaay too much time on my hands. That said, I doubt I'm the only person who has done this upon signing up to Facebook.
I think I'm missing something though. Now that I have joined Facebook, what happens next? People spoke of Scrabble and other magical wonders that make this such a good site, but I got nothing. Sigh... oh well, just another social networking site joined and then forgotten about 3 weeks later.
It's Hari Raya here today. I'm all for the end of Ramadan as I get a 3 day weekend! I'm pretty sure I shouldn't say "Happy Ramadan" to people but here's to hoping people have a fun day.
