Do you use any social networking sites?

[Lifeguards For Life]

How many of you guys do not have a facebook account?

If you do not use facebook, do you use any other similar sites?

I had one throughout high school, though I deleted it shortly after graduation.

I am surprised how many of my current classmates, seem to view it as their prime means of communications.

I am actually happy with my decision not to maintain a facebook account, and feel like I have been able to use time that would of been spent on facebook, more appropriately.

I realize not all options in the poll are networking sites, but they seemed fitting.

I probably should of phrased this poll as a Yes/No questionnaire

FB lets me stay connected with friends. My rule is I only add people I like enough I'd stop to talk with if I saw them on the street (and they didn't see me). I'm so busy, I'm bad at going out or calling a lot of friends whom I do care to know what's going on in their lives. With FB it's easier... minus all the clutter they're adding to it lately.

I have Facebook, but 99% of the people on it are friends from school (and, no, not just everyone who joins "____ University, Class of ____" groups). I can count the number of people I'm friends with on Facebook that I haven't met in real life on one hand. The thing with Facebook, as a student, is that it is extremely useful for sharing resources and coordinating things (like flag football, ski trips, etc) compared to other methods.

Used to do facebook. I was spending way too much time on it though. Maybe will get it going again someday.

I use facebook all the time. I am not much of a phone person, so it is the best way for me to keep up with friends and family.

I use facebook, with the same parameters as JPFINV. Helps to keep track of birthdays, and coordinating activities.
