For the record – I think I’m too old to enjoy Facebook.

I’m uberfordert with the enormous amount of new requests everday, for new applications I should install and give access to my data, just to forget about them in the next minute, for 10 variations of the same functionality put into different applications that look and sound the same, but aren’t. I don’t want to give virtual flowers, smacks, beers, hugs, ass kicks, farts, money or whatever.

I don’t need a social network to compare my taste in music, movies, games, flowers to people I have never met in real life. And for the people I DID meet, we’ve sorted these things out, already, so whats the f-ing point?

I don’t want to rate how sexy my female co-workers are (and risk being sued for sexual harassment). Oh, and that applies to male co-workers as well!!

I see the need for networks like LinkedIn or Xing (which I still refer to as “ksing”, and not “crossing”, ignoring all the comments from the wiseasses around *g*), I use them regularly, even found my current job through one of them.

I’ve used sites like tupalo.com enough to see the benefits for me, especially when wandering around in an area of a city I’m not familiar with.

But I decided I just don’t get anything out of Facebook or Myspace or any other of that “fun” social networks. Period. Twitter me an oldfashioned twat, I guess I can live with it
