Title: Facebook
Post by: camellia0 on February 19, 2013, 04:34:56 pm
I find myself always on FB when I'm home. Either chatting, posting or playing games. I think being on FB is better than watching tv a lot of times cuz there aren't any good shows on any more

Sound like an addiction....lol... just kidding.
Facebook can be affordable entertainment.
I use it in moderation.

I don't have drama going on on my facebook. So for me there's no entertainment value. I just like it 'cause I can keep in touch with people better.

I used to play games on there, til I realized if I was just going to be wasting time on the computer, I will waste it and get some money!  So now, I try to "waste" my internet time making a few cents!

FB is a time consumer , you have to be aware of how much time on spend on it.

I enjoy facebook mostly as something to check when I have time in between other activities.

I like Facebook's potential to reconnect you with new and old friends but it can be a breeding ground for drama even if you try to be a positive person.  I find myself deleting people all the time, even family members.

Yeah me too. I used to play games on Facebook all the time. Mostly Farmville. But now that I am a website editor I am on there all day just posting for the site I work for. It's much better getting paid for the time I spend on Facebook now.  ;D

I use to be on FB all the time.  I decided that if I was going to spend that much time on my laptop then I should at least try and make a little money.  I do check into FB about twice a week though.

I agree, there aren't any good shows on tv. It came to my attention, thanks to my kids, in the last few days that I am spending too much time on Facebook. I don't play games, I just check my best friends' status updates and share some of the things that interest me.

Facebook is just small entertainment for me, using it too much can get you into trouble, financially and personally! :thumbsup:

FB is a good source to catch up with old and new friends and I enjoy playing games as well. But, I don't spend as much time as most seem to do because I get bored fairly easy. I read the posts sometimes but a lot of it as others have stated are filled with drama so I just move on. I really like to view the areas for buy sell and trade in my area. Its like an online yard sale.

My daughters finally got me to set up a Facebook account and I admit I enjoy it somewhat.  I check on family and friends some but I mainly use the apps that I joined for buying, selling or trading items in our area.  I've gotten some really good deals on there; furniture for our flea market, clothes for one of my granddaughters and some misc. items.  Some people price their stuff too high but a lot of the people just want to get rid of stuff so they price it right.  I've not had any luck trying to sell anything but thats ok too.

I only have a FB account to keep in touch with my nieces, nephews and grandkids. I really don't like FB. They seem to be taking advantage of their members by using their account information. I rarely go on FB anymore!!

I love Facebook because it allows me to communicate with people I would not normally talk to too often--like old friends, distant relatives, etc.  But for me it will never be a daily form of entertainment--too many people post every detail of every minute of their lives or too personal information they really shouldn't be putting out there.

I'm not on Facebook often, to be honest.  I never got into any of the Facebook games, and after the latest batch of changes the interface just isn't as good.  But, to each his or her own.

well, one thing that might work is, while watching tv, take surveys for pay.  they seem to add up for me.
