Has the "social media" thing completely passed you by? - U-235 - 03-19-2014 10:49 PM
I'm 25, grew up with the internet, probably used it since 1998 and still spend hours on it every day.
However, I feel like I completely missed the boat with this social media thing. I had a myspace that I hardly used in about 2005, set up a facebook account in about 2007 that I never logged into, have never sent so much as a single tweet and have only been aware of instagram's existence for a few months.
Is this as uncommon as I feel like it is? I feel like in 20 or 30 years people will be reminiscing about this era-defining thing and I haven't been a part of it at all, I've been largely oblivious to it all.
lol I love how every time you read something written by someone against facebook you always get one of those examples of triviality

Not completely, no.
I may not be aware of everything nor do I feel it's necessary.
There are only so many hours in a day and I prefer spending most of my available time interacting with people I see face to face on a daily basis.

I love using My computer
but i cannot see anything in facebook or twitter and I would buy a Mobile phone if it was Only a Phone
i cannot see the Value in today's Mobiles i would Rather Put the Money into another week on my already 7 weeks Holiday Overseas every year
all the Mobile phone has done is Make people Rude are you really that Important that having coffee with a friend your toy rings and away you go without an excuse me
a Person who was a Friend asked what happened My Phone Rang i answered it and you were Gone
Yes your phone call was More Important than me so I left after You insulted me
How was the question By answering your phone and walking away ignoring me you want my friendship turn off your mobile
Modern technology is NOT always for the Good
