Yes, it's quite difficult to contact celebrities. ;)

I've been hearing about this movie for quite some time, and am eager to see it. Marry Poppins was my first "indoor theater" movie (having only been to drive-ins prior). But this was the first time I've seen the trailer, thank you!

I'm not seeing anything in either Inbox going back to 2008. Oh well. May all be moot anyway, I'm in the process of doing an experiment with juggling various social networks and at the moment I'm pretty sure Facebook is going to lose.

I'm much more grumpy about not seeing Twitter than I was about the period of not seeing Facebook.

Heheh, and I've decided to dump everything BUT facebook. All the other social media sites, twitter, reddit, tumbler, instagram, blahblah, seem to specialize in one particular thing - ALL of which can and usually are done on Facebook. I'm simplifying by switching to Facebook exclusively.

LJ?

I don't consider LJ a social media site. Heheh, hardly. It's down to me and 3 other people I know. But yeah, I still el jay. Writing one now, in fact.

In my experience nothing truly interesting ever gets said on Facebook because it is so open and so spread hardly anybody is willing to say anything remotely controversial or thought provoking. And most of those who do regularly seem to be way out in the extremes and completely unaware of it.

After my 5 week vacation from all social media, I realized that by not reading Facebook I didn't appear to have missed anything of interest. Wasn't true of Twitter (similarly low calorie interaction but of more actual interest).

But who knows. Everybody's there so I doubt I'll dump it entirely.

I find it exactly the opposite. Sure, many interesting and pithy things are tweeted on twitter. But there's rarely a conversation. Once in a while, a reply and less often a reply to a reply. But Facebooks posts can, and in my feed pretty often do, spur actual conversation similar to what we might find in a message board thread.

I've gone back to MySpace

Good. But I don't generally see that, on my posts or anybody else's. And if a conversation does happen it is a conversation that happens in 18 minutes and then everybody moves on.

But that's fine. It apparently doesn't work for me.

It's one of the things I find fascinating about Facebook is that people can have completely different experiences of it. I think that recommends it highly, in general.
