After months of frustration with all the Facebook changes, as well as the constant changes (without notifications) to account settings, and making it a constant pain with keeping my account privacy settings locked down – I have decided to deactivate my FB account.  And it feels so great!  I equate it to the feeling I had after working at Microsoft for almost 10 years and finally used a Mac for the first time!  It was such a refreshing revelation!  My next computers at home are going to be Macs, and I love my iPhone and iPad.  As for Facebook, its become a constant stream of privacy issues with the company and I think it just goes back to the “hacker” mentality with its founder.

If you want to get an appreciation for all that is written on FB privacy issues, just Google Facebook Privacy Issues and see what kind of interesting postings and FTC investigations and charges you will find.

See you on LinkedIn or Twitter!
