Evaluation 3 weeks ago

Quitting Facebook was really about quitting spending any unnecessary time on Facebook. I could cut down on the time I use it, but it hasn’t been a problem lately. I have so much other work to do.

For completion’s sake, I went back on Facebook, but, having used the notifications feature on it (and having deleted all my new wall posts), I use it much less. I do need it to look at events, etc. I’m hoping to use it even less once I get my classes all settled.

nothing bad happened to me on FB, i just realised that it was a waste of time, when i could be hanging out or actually talking to friends for real.



Smartest thing I've done in my life 17 months ago

Quit about 5 months ago and I’ve stayed clean ever since. It had a ridiculously disgusting hold over me, and I’m SO glad I’m over it. I still get urges, but I fight them.

Every once in a while I need a picture (like for 43Things) and I go on, accept all my friend requests, and check out the pics, that’s all, I don’t even check my wall, I’m pretty proud, especially since almost every person I know is FINALLY on there. Who really needs 600 cyber friends anyway? So glad I kicked it!!

Oh and I have so much more FREE time!! Yay me!

This is probably the best thing I have done this year.

What shocks me is that my best friend from high school, who is in another country right now, doesn’t “contact” me as often as she did before. Sure, before, these bits of Facebook-based communication consisted of “Hey! How are you? Hope your week is great!” but it wouldn’t kill to add three more sentences and keep in touch via e-mail. :(

Nevertheless, I don’t regret doing this. It shows me how thoroughly (or not) people are connected with me.

Last night I deleted my photo album. Yay! One more step towards cleaning my Facebook profile and kicking the habit.

Pulling me back 19 months ago

Just when I am forgetting facebook, the most idiotic messages are being sent to me to bring me back. I am trying to quit people!

Cleanup 19 months ago

I cleaned up my profile (hiding my wall etc) and requesting emails not be sent to me when certain actions are executed. I requested a name change (see building my personal brand). Now all I have to do is stay away.
