I'm a social media manager, so I'm on Facebook all day, but not for myself.  I do have to check it regularly when I'm not working for messages for clients.  I don't post too much to my own Facebook.  It is a good way to find old friends that you have lost touch with.

I used to go on it a lot, but lately I haven't had much interest in being on it as much. I'll check stuff, but that's about it. :P

I'm one of the weird early 20-somethings that doesn't use social networking. I have an LJ, but I don't know if that really counts. And I made a Tumblr just to browse images because being logged in makes stuff sort of easier to look at??

Frankly, I feel totally lost when it comes to Twitter and Tumblr and Instagram. I look at them like "What are these sites and what do I do with them??" I feel like if I COULD come to understand one of them, it'd probably be Instagram. Tumblr and Twitter just blow my mind through confusion.

I once joined Facebook(under fake info, of course) for a total of 5 minutes to just try it out...I deleted it within that 5 minutes and never cared to go back lol. I just prefer forum-style sites for whatever reason.

I use it less now, but there was a time when I was all day long there, playing with the online games there were, now I just look what other do, like their pictures or their updates, but i don't publish that much now. It bores me a bit. I prefer others like instagram.

I check it daily and share interesting articles and videos quite often but rarely post any status updates myself. I like the groups and I also use FB to keep in touch with friends and family. I love reading my friends' thoughts and updates, and sometimes I feel like I should also "give something back" instead of lurking, but writing about my life never came naturally to me even when limiting my updates to friends only. Discussion forums have always been my preferred way of online networking. :)

I have a Twitter account but I only use it for work-related stuff. I swore I'd never join Twitter but I had to give in and admit it's really handy for my work as a researcher. Following people is what we do! :P

I also still have my old LJ account but I have pretty much abandoned the place. Keeping a journal was never really my thing although I tried it as a teenager. I then tried to repurpose my LJ and use it to blog about my crafts projects but I had so many other sites I would post my art to (the Arena, DA, some other forums, my own MLP custom website, Facebook, etc.) so that I often just forgot to post any new journal entries. That said, these days I don't really have much time for said crafts projects anyway.

I really started using Facebook when I was first living in a flatshare and wanted to stay in touch with the people who moved out. Which is just as well because now, more than six years later, the people I used to live with are spread out across four continents! If it weren't for Facebook, I'd never know what they were up to these days, and that would be a shame. I think Facebook is great for that sort of low-level keeping in touch.

I use Facebook regularly, but don't really fit into any of those categories. I don't tend to actually talk to other people, as - pretty much in general - I let others decide if they want to talk to me, instead of bothering them, because I know from past experience that I'm annoying and I don't want to annoy people. =(

With that said, I like to at least see what other people are doing. I've been out of high school for coming up on ten years now. I'm in my third college, and recently quit a long time job. There are *a lot* of people I don't see anymore.

A fair number of them just post memes/images with sayings all of the time. Oh well.

I use facebook almost daily.  I keep in touch with many extended family members and friends.  I also share a lot of pictures and memes and political stuff.  I have lost "friends" over some of my posts, but that doesn't bother me.  I mostly enjoy sharing pictures and seeing other people's photos. Sometimes I see things that kind of depress me, people doing things I wish I could be doing, but can't because of  my Lupus.  However the positives outweigh the negatives.  I enjoy reconnecting with old friends too.

This!!! Too much drama :faint: I also know it would be a time sink and I don't want to get drawn into looking at other people's lives, when I should be getting on with my own.

I do have a Facebook page for my crafts and pony customs though ^.^

I check it regularly, but mostly just reading other posts/pics/etc. I share funny ones, more than I ever do actual status updates. I also manage a page for my Etsy store.

Special Education Teacher here. If I have a FB orr any other social site, I lose my job. So no, I do not use social networking. At all.

Also, my husband works in skip tracing. One of his best resources for locating people is social networking b/c NOTHING is safe, hidden, or protected online.
My G3 grail is LS Pinkie Pie MIB.  If you have her for sale or trade, I WILL pay.
