What is Facebook and do you find it valuable
#12
RE: What is Facebook and do you find it valuable
I also liked FB at first.  I reconnected with class mates.  Had a family page with cousins where we shared old pictures.  Watched my sister's grandkids grow up.  Even set up the first date after divorce.  This was 2009-2012.

I used it to share nature photography and promote wilderness adventures.  Here's a pair of eagles on the nest.  Here's a black bear and two cubs.  Here's a wad of butterflies so thick you can't see the coon crap they're devouring.  This is what it's like to sit in the front of a canoe in 2" haystacks, minus the water in your lap.

It became too political and less about people's lives.  Just a list of articles I don't care to read or some idiot who barely passed biology telling me he "researched" something.  Then, Facebook began suggesting friends from the contacts in my phone.  They were colleagues, students, a real estate agent, an insurance rep.  Not cool.  I deleted the app, then a few months ago suspended the account.
