Thoughts on Facebook/Twitter and the like. Do you use them? Why/why not?
Do you spill your personal life and darkest secrets online or would you be okay with your mother seeing your posts? :D

Myself I use Facebook, can be found there with my real name (Lauramaija Rantala. Fellow CR users are free to +friend.) I think I mostly use it out of habit, it's not really my only way of keeping in contact with my friends but I do find it quite fun these days. The first time I tried FB I didn't like it at all, but nowadays it's not so much about filling out a quizz and having to spam it to 150 friends to be able to see the results. u_u
I do post about personal things too, but mostly I just rant about stuff like movies and Ace Attorney. :-P

I use FB to keep in touch with friends, though I'm not a huge fan of it. I pick and choose what I post though, on other sites I do tend to post more personal stuff, but not too personal

I have a Myspace, Gaia, and some few topic-related site accounts. Facebook and Twitter can go burn for all I care.

I have a Blogger account, too, but it's for school-related things. -___-

I don't really get the big deal with social networking sites. Why not hang out with your friends in real life, rather than talking to them through a website? That's my rule. :godot:

Because people can't hang out and talk to each other outside the net all the time. Sometimes it's easier to chat with friends online and... I would say more but I'm to tired to recall what else I was about to say.

I can understand talking to a friend online from time to time, but I don't understand why so many people feel the need to constantly be on their phone, texting or tweeting or whatever the newest popular way of communicating is.

I remember a topic getting locked and some users getting banned for posting personal information.
Facebook is kinda like that.
let me look for that thread
EDIT: ACtually I'm not sure, but it's never safe to post your personal info on the internetz

Well, I never have used Faceook or Twitter of the like. To keep in contact with far-away friends, I use MSN. Much easier, IMO.
Other than that I hang out in real life...so yeah.

I see no problem with giving out my first and last name in a place like this for example. Most of my online friends know them, and some of them even know my home address due to art trades and such.
I've yet to think of a scenario where someone could cause me any serious trouble with my name alone. And the people who have my address... the worst thing they can do is drop by, I suppose. :D

As a memento from the time I was the main organizer of one internet community's meetings, at least one disturbed stalker has my phone number. He went nuts after getting banned, and he's been on and on about "REVENGE >>DD" for the last... uh... 6 years. Every now and then he calls me and threatens to kill me. I used to report him to the police, nowadays I just lol.

I use Facebook for 3 things:
- Plan events with my friends during the summer
- Send out parts of the story I'm writing for the people that want to read it.
- Play Mafia Wars. :P

I don't use any other social networking sites.

I use Facebook but only because it's so convenient. If I want to ask my friends about schoolwork or sort out times for us to meet up if we want to go to the movies or something, then I'll use FB, 'cause I know they'll be online~

I use Facebook and hate myself for it because every time I log on I'm tempted to compare myself with my friends (or in several cases 'friends'). It's the type of thing that can break weak-minded people like me.

Plus I don't like being part of what seems to be increasingly similiar a gigantic marketing ploy but that's another stpry.

Can't quit because, god dammit, everyone uses it, and thus it's very convenient at times.

This makes me want to join it, especially since one of my friends that moved away has an account on it, plus one on Myspace and Gaia that she has me as a friend on, but for some reason either her parents think FB is safer than Myspace or Gaia, or she's just ignoring me.

Best bet says it's the latter one. DX

I use Facebook for a reason a lot of people are, to keep contact with friends. Sure a phone is another option, but they have to be available, while facebook you just post on their wall and wait for a reply.

Besides, Mafia Wars is fun. =P

It's simple really. People can't physically be with the person they want to talk to/be with 24/7.

-Constantly be on their phone

This is self explanatory. For the same reason I mentioned also.

-Texting
Another way of communicating. Some people would rather text than use a phone.

-tweeting
Twitter is used for little updates.

I really like facebook.
People can use social networking sites like facebook to talk to old friends, build on relationships, talk to others, catch up with others(this is good with the "old friends" bit), talk to people they normally wouldn't have a good chance talking to, and simply meet new people as well.

People who know each other online (like from forums) can use social networking sites, as well as other forms communication such as instant messaging, to talk with one another. Some people simply also have an easier time online.

Others have eaten gotten jobs through facebook and some people go for the games.

I use it mainly for talking to my friend, who lives far away in the middle of nowhere and therefore can't be here all the time. And I really hate talking onthe phone. My idiotic family always tries to have a conversation with me while I'm on the phone, which is really awkward.

Hi, I have also a twitter account, but I am most often using my facebook account. Many of my friends are there, so that I can't still use my twitter most of the time. However, I still open my twitter because I've been met new friends there, and, I am glad that you are also using it.

A crucial motive for deciding to create my own Facebook was being able to stay in contact with members from another small forum that I frequently lose contact of. Another reason, more personal, is contacting relatives and acquaintances who don't live within earshot distance from my home. It is also much easier for me to express my thoughts through a transcript than through speech.

Those are just a few perks of being part of an online social network. If you're interested in adding me, the link is in my CR profile.

I don't really have either. Had a bebo and a myspace but they're old school now and don't use em anymore.

I think social networking sites undermine the term 'friend'. Rather than have a bazillion utterly random people and acquaintances as friends I'd rather just keep those important to me. Besides those sites make it too easy for people you don't want to contact you reach you.

So now I use the way more mature Facebok :D

Though I never really use it to talk about my personal life I use it to talk about jibber jabber that interests me and no I do not use my real name because of the coolness factor of not using it. :godot:

I don't use facebook because....... well because I don't use it and I don't want my family members to pester me daily which they kind of do because I don't have one. :keiko:

I love facebook the most though, but I love live journal cause you can get away with anything there.

I pretty much only use Twitter to talk to one of my friends who never used FB. :D But I'm friends with both my parents, so I don't really say weird stuff. Much. Uh ... I'm not friends with anyone I don't know apart from the EM, and I don't accept requests from people I don't know. The only place I talk to people I don't know is DA. /lolabbreviations
