It was kindly brought to my attention that my post yesterday about leaving Facebook came across as sulky sour-grapes—which, upon re-reading it, I agree.
They do have their uses, but for facebook, I think the bad now outweighs the good. I also trashed my twitter account, but I may start a new one because I did get some value from the 'news oriented' tweets and tweeters. Also Twitter isn't anywhere near as obnoxious as facebook when it comes to tracking and flooding you with ads.
Well said Mark! I rarely use facebook, google or amazon (but can't seem to give them up entirely)
