I've switched over to MySpace.
I think that is going to be the big social media platform of the future and I want to be there before anyone else.

I was going to sign on but the requirements are 1200 baud (or better) modem.
I'm planning on upgrading my 300 baud soon.

Pfft, slacker.
You should get with the times and check out these Bulletin Board Systems! There's tons of them and they all support a state-of-the-art serial synchronous communication mechanism!

Farcebook probably started as a really good idea - but then the morons arrived and judged their worth by their "friends" count; changed their relationship status every ten minutes to indicate to the world that they had an active sex life, if only in their imaginations; posted pictures of their breakfast; and generally indicated to that part of the world which could be bothered that their IQ was smaller than their shoe size and dropping rapidly.
And the morons rule, because advertising cr@p to 1,000,000,000 morons is a lot more financially rewarding than advertising relevant stuff to 12,000,000 intelligent people. So Farcebook lower the bar each time, and the average user IQ drops to the point where the rare intelligent comment is swamped into near oblivion.
Twatter is the same.

Sorry. It did not.
It was original created and used to mark people as "hot" or "not".
It was a lame idea and has been transformed into an even more lame idea. 
But, now that it's worth $50 bajillion everyone is like, "it's genius!! Right?!"

And that's about the only good use I can think of for FB... meet chicks. Only problem is, they'll be the type of girls who are on FB.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Totally, it's unfortunate, but all I see is "look at me, look at me" narcissistic type stuff on it now. We've gone from a world of taking pictures of the world to taking selfies of ourselves. Because God forbid I experience something without having other people on FB drooling over it. Anything of substance on there gets ignored... but post a butt pic or cats or a selfie then boom, you get some FB loving.
I suppose there's a place for it in the world, but I feel dumber every time I allow myself to stay on it and read crap.

Use your HOSTS file to redirect it to something else?
|
|
|
|

Loopback... and install a web server to listen to it that redirects local back to FB... which redirects back... and so on. That'll teach me for typing in the FB URL.

While I can't understand how one became addict to FB - you have all my support...
Every time your fingers itches and try to write the URL, visit this[^] first...

There's the rub.
If any of you ever think of creating a social media app, at the top of your worry sheet, you should put:
0. What would Californians do with this?
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

I laugh, because I live in California right now...

Delete your FB account. Is free.

That's step two... eventually... maybe... hopefully...

It's definitely a love hate relationship. I have friends on there that I wouldn't be able to contact otherwise.

This seems suspiciously like a pro-FB post, but I can't give you an angry face emoji because I like you. Oh, the confusion.
