I've resisted so far but people keep asking me to join. I just think it's really sad to be honest.
The concept of it is not, however the way in which people choose to behave is really horrible to be honest. (Not all people, but quite a lot)
It turns good people into tools in some cases![]()
Well tonight has been tediously boring. Nobody to talk to, nothing to do... so i've been pushed to this. The one thing i've been resisting since the beginning. Hell, i'm one of probably three people i know that's not 'on it'. But the question is this: Should i join Facebook?
Here's what i've managed to get so far:
Pros
- Being able to talk to friends who don't use IM.
- Being able to stay in touch with my Brother.
- Not being harassed by everybody to join.
Cons
- The shame of giving in.
- Having less time to spend on productive things.
- Being the 'newbie'.
So what do you think?
Don't bother, unless you really want to see your friends 'status updates' and the stupid groups they keep on joining.
Hmm, most of the replies here seem to be in the negative, which is the opposite response as i've been getting from my friends.

Because the people that don't like it tend to be more vocal.
Or it could be many of the people using the forum are antisocial people without any friends?
