I agree with you a zillion percent regarding facebook. I never understood the point of it, and especially when one factors in the accessability issues, it's just a complete waste of time in my opinion. I have an account, but haven't logged in for ages. I think I should just delete it and never give it a second thought. I do like twitter, though. It's a fun way to communicate, especially for someone like me who isn't particularly social and just wants to communicate the "essentials."

All I can say is to be strong and treat each day as the last day, do whatever you can and achieve a positive way of life. keep smiling and enjoy life. lew On 27 Jan 2012, at 15:26, Jennifer Perdue wrote: I agree with you Lou. The only reason that I participate on Facebook at all is to watch from afar, my thirteen-year-old son who lives in a different city and who was adopted by my parents. They bullied me into the adoption and now treat me as if I was just the "uterus" from which he came. I have no contact with him so all I can do is watch from afar and pray that he is all right. Not the best situation but it's the best i can do. Jenny and my goofy guide Brooks On Jan 26, 2012, at 3:52 PM, Mr. L. Alexander wrote: I never understood the point of facebook either. Still don't. OK there's a business use to it and a marketing resource to it but other than that it's a dangerous tool designed for people with dangerous minds who are capable of inflicting harm on others. It's sad to live in a world where the internet is the latest weapon in oppression and torture. Why can't people just be reasonable? I openly refuse to use facebook as it's just a waste of time and it's open to abuse. as an example, if I advertised my project on facebook, I'd be open to attacks, spam and much more. so it's something I don't need in life where more important things take precedence including the care of my mum who was diagnosed with cancer and the running of my IT services, training sector and the freemacs for the blind project. just my £2.50 + VAT worth lol lew On 26 Jan 2012, at 21:11, Kawal Gucukoglu wrote: I find Face book and the whole social network boring as I can't imagine any one being interested in my little life.

Also, could someone tell me the easiest ap of whatever you would use to use twitter. Who would I follow? I am not sure what you do with it? Thanks for your patience.

What's good with this app is that you can both get the mobile and the desktop versions of Facebook in the app and toggle between them as you like. The buttons are now clearly labeled and the app, although in the menus normally only reachable by using the physical mouse has a short cut key (by default it's control+f) to reach the app. I like it very much.

I just go to the m.facebook webpage currently, but wondered if I could make it easier for myself. Thanks.
