This is because I have so much content on those sites. Flickr, for example, has the last 3-4 years of my photos. Giving that up would be hard!

Apparently, a year ago (I just saw the 1st birthday pictures. I swear I thought it was still a newborn...I can't believe it's been that long already). Seeeeeee???

When was that? (I knew about Aaqa, but the Diana news is completely new to me.) I need to get back on Facebook! Diana had a baby? Wah? When was that?

Too many people I love on there that I would probably have a hard time keeping in touch with if I didn't have it. Besides that, I like being being able to keep up with what's going on in my friend's lives...for example, I've seen two of my roommates' wedding pictures, Diana's first baby, Aaqa's first baby, etc. It's nice. $500,000 for my Facebook account.

In fact, I just got my coupon in the mail yesterday. I will enjoy it. I'm also disappointed that the campaign was discontinued, now that I've told people it was legit.

I really guess it's a matter of how you use each tool -- I've always been one of those people that tends to connect with a lot of people on social networks, and quickly suffer from volume issues. Maybe I need to re-evaluate that approach. <a href="http://twitter.com/colinchan/status/1130804759" rel="nofollow">Colin Chan asked a pretty good question</a> over on Twitter: "It's one thing to give up one social network because you can just migrate to others. But how much to give up online SN entirely?" Some great thoughts everyone.

I've cut down a lot on facebook though. Mostly because I really don't care what people are doing for the most part. do we have to get a day to day account of your pregnancy/ your child's development/ which club you went to last night? I like that i can find people i haven't spoken to in a long time, but that's it I think....and yes I agree with KK...the birthdays are good to have too!

You got to have either a Twitterfox, Twihrl or something in order to be effectively using it. And yes, you can use Twitter without being mobile. Twitter without a twitter-client is worthless.
