I don't have FB account and don't desire one, although I imagine this as
glamorous (and maybe useful) as having a telephone line in 1970 for
those who like it.
Hope the interesting things on surround sound published there come to us
some other way.

The problem with Google, FB, and to a degree Apple is not the advertising or
lack of utility of the gadgets. Nobody is forced to buy anything.

This is funny but it is of course wrong,
I like facebook a lot, but I dislike text messages,
and so on. Which general types of things one likes
may develop early, but the details are not

google ,facebook, apple selling gadgets that are
really quite useless and google and facebook
making money on ads and no other way(google
sells how far up the search list you are but

The whole USA and a good deal
Oh well, looks like I am the odd one out, again...I am on FB, but under
what for convenience I will call my "stage name", which my friends know
and understand but my music students or the idly curious will never find;

anything, nor provide _reasons_ for acting that way.
In my case, the *reason* is that IMHO FB is

Ditto.
In my case, the reason was elegantly
explained by Douglas Adams:
I've [Douglas Adams has] come up with a set
of rules that describe our reactions to

I certainly sympathize with all of those who have posted anti-facebook
comments.
That is why I maintain only a minimal facebook presence. But it does seem to
