It’s not Facebook, it’s a blog!

So, I’ve set up a blog once again, why you may ask? Many reasons but mainly as a kind of online diary ramblings etc, etc for no-one in particular. If people like what I write, have wrote/written, fantastic, its always nice to inform or simply entertain another.

One of the said reasons for beginning a journey through the Bologosphere again was a few weeks after ditching Facebook, it is currently 22.35 on the 19th September 2011. I deactivated my account 2 weeks ago after a conscious decision to get “More Stuff” done. Dont get me wrong, I like/liked Facebook but couldn’t help get a sense that most status updates either veered towards how great someones life was, how hard working someone was, or how bored someone was. This didn’t rifle me piss me off or even offend me, neither did it make my day better (Even though I miss some of the funny comments and friends musings I now just have to wait to hear them in person).
Secondly  I was unconsciously loosing valuable time to FB which was mostly my own fault, checking updates, notifications, event messages, etc throughout the day on my phone could easily total  30mins split into 2 minute update checks on my phone throughout the day. On top of that  the distraction when doing work on my laptop of “Just glancing” every now and again would also eat up time.  You do the math, over a week or even a month it soon totals up.

So that was it, just a couple of reasons to ditch (deactivate), not necessarily forever, but after 2 weeks of going cold turkey on FB I may just close it. Currently I seemed to have substituted indoor rowing for FB, sweating my tits of for an hour on a sliding seat surrounded by women currently seems to be doing it, maybe more of that in another post.
