beelikej: (BeeLikeJ - Be Like Me)
Today I finally managed to delete my Facebook account. I felt very lost and uncomfortable there, mainly because I never figured out how to keep up with everyone or check a timeline properly. I could mention the privacy issue* and the annoying habit of FB-buttons popping up everywhere, but to be fair it was mostly my personal lack of control over the lay-out that made me avoid the place. Besides that I had so much trouble following people and I never really connected to anyone, except occasionally with people I already communicate with on other social networks. Even then it felt like more fleeting contact than really talking. One reason I stayed longer than I really wanted was that it's the one place my SIL regularly posts photos of my nephew, so I now have an excuse to visit more in real life;)

I still have plenty of online hang outs, although I am considering cutting down, here's a list of all the places you can find me. (I'm BeeLikeJ everywhere:)

Love me, love me, say that you love me )

Pfff, I think that's all of them. Feel free to follow me anywhere. I have the same policy for friending back everywhere: I like to keep my dashboard/friendlist/circle/whatever managable, so I don't just collect people to get a high score. Most importantly: these places are my comfort zones, which means I avoid blogs and journals that make me feel awkward. This includes, but is not limited to: an overload of cutesy petpictures or 'revealing' photos of celebs I care not enough or too much about and stuff I have personal issues with, such as a couple of mundane human trades that I'm not even mentioning here for fear of losing my calm.
What I'm trying to explain is that my (lack of) response isn't necessarily a reflection of our actual relationship status or my opinion of you *g*

How many digital hang-outs do you have?

*Obviously I don't mind sharing my personal life :-p

P.S. Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] sillie82 for the dragon!
