I previously deleted my FB account about 1 year ago. I felt great, my life got so much easier. I was free.
Then, I felt a strange need for it again about 3 months back. I re-opened the account (it was still there!) and went about adding all my friends again.

While my wife, uses the darn thing every day, even though she claims to hate it, I forget it exists altogether. It is just sitting there collating information about me and my friends and family. For what?

Time to go delete it again. Thanks for the timely reminder.

BTW, there was recently an episode of South Park mocking FaceBook. Worth the 10 minute watch for a bit of a chuckle. I am sure it is on YouTube.
