Friends Who Have Swiched To FaceBook
I notice lately that a lot of people on my f'list have largely given up LJ and are instead doing most of their posting in FaceBook Notes. Can I just say, I miss you?
I do have a FaceBook account, but I'm not a daily user. I only log on when I get an e-mail about an event invitation, or someone friends me or writes on my wall. That happens about 3 times a week, and I'll usually check my inbox and poke around for a few minutes, but I don't use it as a daily feed and so I don't see everything that my friends post.
I'm not saying not to post notes on FaceBook, but if you do, and you haven't left LJ entirely, would you consider cross-posting some of them here? If I have you on my LJ f'list, its because I like your writing and enjoyed reading it. And don't think nobody on LJ misses you, because I do!

I don't trust facebook. Not the least bit. To many apps, too many loopholes. I write the bare minimum there and keep an account there for some high school and college buddies mostly.

FaceBook, as near as I can tell, restricts your posts to soundbite length, and seems designed to foster triviality. It is annoying to me that so many people I know appear to be focusing their online energies on FB, because I have so little interest in it myself. (Note that I'm not saying, you're wrong to do that, or a bad person or anything; just that it's personally disappointing.)
Kat is on FaceBook, and really enjoys it as a way to keep in touch with mates back in Oz, and I can understand the appeal of that. And because my sister is also a FB convert, my wife now knows more about my sis and her family than I do. I could rectify that, of course, but it still saddens me a bit. I realize my FaceBook aversion is starting to reach crotchety-old-man proportions, and Kat teasingly points out the LJ and FB are really not all that different, but screw it. I'm not giving in!

I pretty much agree with you on this one as you will see.
Also, I was not at all crazy about FaceBook.
