Facebook...

Incredible, I have finally followed through with my ongoing threat of deactivating my facebook account..or so I thought! I rarely log on, but when I do, I get annoyed by the useless information people add in their 'what are you thinking?' section - never have I witnessed anything profound or genuinely interesting. This is one of my main reasons for bailing, the other is just the annoyance of feeling the need to log onto something just because I have an account.

Why is everything so difficult to end, I mean it is the same with terminating a phone contract, a credit card...but now a facebook account! Why are companies so desperate to keep you when the feeling is so clearly not mutual? I have always wondered about relationships too...why is it that we are so desperate to hang on to people we love when they don't love us back?

Anyway, I spent the last hour and half removing all of the friends, pictures and profile details only to find that when hitting the final 'deactivate' button, the damn thing crashed and would not let me end it - no doubt another clever ploy to give me time to sleep on my decision. That aside, the facebook end is nigh...the final click will take place tomorrow and I will be free of groups, invites, posts and pokes!
