Finally pulled the trigger and deleted my personal facebook account. Am realistic enough to know that is not a cure all but it certainly will not hurt. Honestly I did it more for social reasons than anything else. For some reason we have convinced ourselves that “liking” mundane junk, posting things on “walls” and an occasional brief chat replace actual human interaction. I would rather have a 10 minute phone conversation once a month than that meaningless back and forth. Deleting FB was sort of a forcing function towards that goal.
Anyway that’s what I did this afternoon. Not that it took a long time but I wanted to pull off photo’s that only existed there.
The blog has a FB account (look up theother ryan) but there isn’t anything really useful in terms of information there and it has helped with some business stuff so I’ll keep it for the time being.
