I will be leaving Facebook...

[seawasp]

In a few days. I'm giving it just long enough so anyone who contacted me there can hear about it and come here, or to Baen's Bar, or just visit www.grandcentralarena.com occasionally.

Why?

Well, because they've been increasingly annoying and intrusive to the point that they make LJ's hijinks look positively upstanding and respectable. as you can see here.  (Ganked from threeringedmoon )

Since, unlike LJ, I never invested any of my money there, and, unlike LJ, Facebook is totally unsuited to my general method of writing and communication, I probably won't miss it much.

I didn't realize this until today when I went back to look at the conversation we had on Jim's page about the nature of alien life and found your comments missing.

I was disappointed; I was hoping we might end up in a similarly interesting conversation someday. But I completely understand your reasons. Many folks are dropping FB.

Well, I'm always here on LJ or on Baen's Bar if you want to have an argument discussion on any subject! :)
