Anyone on Google+ here?

[bjh]

Yes.

[Dan]

Not really taking off is it..

[Shell]

There are so many social networks out there now they are hard to keep up with...

[Dan]

Facebook has bunnies on the feed now, so I am about ready to close that down. Myspace is history. Google+ is the only one that has no garbage.. yet.

I am on the verge of calling it quits on myspace...I still have an account but I'm hardly ever there anymore. Daniel, I didn't realize you still had a facebook account, which supports my idea it's hard to keep up with... It's difficult to completely avoid garbage short of just not having an account but I don't add the aps or play the games on facebook and I take advantage of private browsing which cuts down on at least some of the junk. I have family on my facebook page so I don't really want to give it up at this point. All this Internet stuff has its good and bad points.

[Dan]

Yup I have a private account, I did this because there was emails from people I didn't know trying to add, it was full on spam.. email is still effective.. still get the odd V1Agr@ email but not to bad.

[Shell]

Oh, I get those junk e-mails too...They're very annoying but I just delete them. Keeping in touch with people by e-mail is fine, but the social networks have their good points too. You can always delete your accounts if it gets to be too much of a headache, there is that alternative.

I think it's easy to filter out things you don't want to see on facebook. Make a list of your closest friends for example. Then filter away all game results as well...
