One month away from Facebook. One friend request, three messages, and seven notifications. That's about what I get if I leave YouTube for a couple hours.
Guess I didn't miss much after all.
I've actually been back on Facebook for a week now, but you'd barely know it. A link to a blog post and a GameCola article, a goofy status update or three, and a new poll on my GeminiLaser page. I'll glance at my feed when I log in, but I'm mostly there nowadays to coordinate weekend plans with people who never check their regular e-mail, or whose regular e-mail doesn't appear to have a "Reply All" button. (You know who you are.)
Giving up Facebook for a month deprived me of a unique and effective method of communication with my friends, family, and fans. For that reason, I'm glad to be back. As for the rest of it—the Farmville requests, the ever-changing privacy policies, the fact that my friends only post pictures of Doctor Who and BABIES! (you know who you are)—I'm reminded that spending more of my time tidying the house and falling off of ledges in Tomb Raider probably isn't such a bad idea after all.
