Originally posted by Wheatfield I’m probably one of 6 people living in the developed world that has no social media presence. I had a facebook account for a few years to keep in touch with a friend that had moved overseas, but I closed it earlier this year. I really see it as a waste of time.
Well, folks had better start searching for the other four, because I don't either - and I never will.
I'm a very sociable guy, but less so online. I have just a few forum memberships, though PF is the only one I use frequently. Other than that, I use only e-mail for online communication. I don't even like phone SMS messages, as the brevity and abbreviations result in too much margin for error in interpretation. So, forum messages aside, my only electronic communication is by e-mail. The rest is by voice over the phone, or - better still - face-to-face... the latter being the only method where people (me included) are
truly themselves, and one might have any hope of reading intonation and body language...
