Am I the biggest dork in creation? (Wait, you really don’t have to answer that…)
Honestly, though, I feel like I’m the only person in the whole world (literally), not on facebook. Traveling and meeting more and more wandering spirits, I’m always posed with the question, “Are you on facebook?” And to this point, this question has yet to come from an American. I’ve heard it from Canadians, Brits, and Israelis. Then, this past weekend, I hung out with three awesome Aussie girls, and they could not stop raving about facebook or talking about which pictures of the night would make it to their facebook pages.
Grrr…Why didn’t the rest of the world latch onto myspace.com, where I spent way too much time searching out all the people from my past last year? What is it about facebook that everyone else digs? I’m really trying to avoid spending a day of my traveling life setting up a facebook page (and yes, it would take a day — my OCD journo-curiosity would mean I’d search for every name that I could think of). But as I get further and further into my travels (and miss out on seeing some great pictures on facebook pages), I’m afraid I’m just putting off the inevitable.
Wanna help me decide if I should face the facts and get on facebook? Take the poll below…
stay strong – you can do it.
“ocd journ-curiosity” lol thanks for giving a name to my disease. i’m glad to know i’m not the only one. i don’t have a facebook either.
ARGH! So hard, though!
And if I make it back to LA, maybe we can start an OCD journo-curiosity self-help group…
