I miss the days of messaging and email.<br />I'm surprised so many people agree, it's really cool and was not expecting it at all! <br /><br />Lady- I stared a Twitter but after 2 posts I realised I just wasn't that interesting and ran out of things to write..Kaylia Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13520507919873990733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-48925163301524437042010-11-05T03:24:19.681+11:002010-11-05T03:24:19.681+11:00I agree about facebook, I hate it.

It wasn't that long ago but now I can't imagine my life without it.

And to be honest, I don't use it for much else other than sending messages to close friends (who all live far away) or posting pictures for my friends and family across the country to see...but it really does make you feel like you're not good enough, doesn't it? I bet you'll be happier taking a little break from it and then using it on your own terms.ag.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09215514408102098662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-30249520562353122702010-11-03T04:42:35.217+11:002010-11-03T04:42:35.217+11:00I completely agree with people acting like a chara...I completely agree with people acting like a character of themselves as opposed to the real nitty gritty boring truth. But I think we all know that no one is that fabulous! <br />Being thousands of miles away from my friends and family, I like FB for how easy it makes it to keep in touch, but nobody needs to know every single thought I have everyday, or what I'm doing Saturday night because I'm just not that interesting!<br />Enjoy your FB vacation :-)Sara Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06058056977783867772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-30632869654684700202010-11-02T22:49:41.989+11:002010-11-02T22:49:41.989+11:00I find facebook strange as well.

I think certain parts of it are great, like being able to keep up with people who you don't see very much, it's an easy way to set up events, it's a good way to share photos. But I find it very odd when people update their statuses constantly, or when they talk about what they are going to put on facebook if you are talking to them in person. I'm really glad it wasn't around when I was in highschool. I think being confident and comfortable as a teenager is hard enough without having to be confident and comfortable 24/7 on facebook as well. <br /><br />So can I ask, do you Twitter as well?!Alison Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14002905315840706121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-54052893193017137702010-11-02T09:29:01.468+11:002010-11-02T09:29:01.468+11:00I kind of feel the same way and seem to be using i...I kind of feel the same way and seem to be using it less and less. <br />My other thought is....sometimes you can tell more about someone by all this fake stuff they post, know what i mean?khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12280510323058001105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-59626727104450459602010-11-02T02:12:05.446+11:002010-11-02T02:12:05.446+11:00Facebook depresses me; blogging doesn't.

Starting an anonymous blog was something I wanted to do for a long time and I finally have and whilst its small and often not very profound, I enjoy it. It is a place to track my progress or my inspirations and talk about things that are important to me. But what I have never done is give my blog address out to "friends" - I don't like the idea of that simply because I then feel like I have to conform to the idea they have of me. I am glad you have found happiness in your blog. I have found happiness in your blog too!beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607850411588165692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-17962847088457968252010-11-01T07:22:14.483+11:002010-11-01T07:22:14.483+11:00i feel exactly the same way.

I just don't think people need to know everything about my life (when I get up, what I did this weekend, what I'm currently drinking, etc.) and you know what? I think I can use my time a little better... like by reading all my favorite blogs ;-)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01176522388318887824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-52562525667415500282010-11-01T01:08:54.283+11:002010-11-01T01:08:54.283+11:00I totally share your feelings about facebook -- ho...I totally share your feelings about facebook -- honestly, I like it because it reminds me about people's birthdays and I get to see photos of friends' kids, but that's it. I don't obsessively update my status or spend hours on it. Just a quick check twice a day.<br /><br />As for blogging, I think as with most technology, it becomes whatever you want it to be. Some people blog because they want that fame. I honestly have always blogged because I love sharing inspiration with other people. You can't control who reads your posts, but you can determine what your blog is. Just be true to your very fabulous self. (You're one of my favorite people in the blogosphere because you are so honest and open. I can't tell you how happy I am that we stumbled upon each other.)Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06814989061078872030noreply@blogger.com
