FaceBook.
Go and wash out your mouth with soap and water! :-)
Agreed!
Like both of you, I prefer usenet - but some of the closed and 'secret'
groups on FB aren't bad.
I went on FB once at the request of another poster on rfc! I didn't like it
and never went back.
That's the same experience as me. I am on Facebook because I can't get
off it. I get a few email messages every day from people I've never
heard of who want to be my friend! I used to answer them with an
appropriate comment but now I can't be bothered.

I googled how to get off FB and the instructions worked. You MUST stay
off FB for a couple of weeks otherwise you are automatically reinstated.
In fact, AFAIK, they keep all your records so if you weaken and log on
at a much later date, you'll be reinstated.
It's a bloody nuisance but some newspapers over here use FB as a legal
firewall so that you can't respond to one of their articles unless you
are on it.
