Thank you for feeding my fantasy that FB will end up in the dustbin. I could read something like this every day and have a little more spring in my step for it. 😁

Facebook certainly has political connections. What I'm wondering, though, is does it have enough value to defend? Will regulators and politicians want to kiss that ring or spend any energy propping it up? I just don't know. Maybe, if the price is right.

I'm all skewed on this, though. After 8 months without touching Facebook, there is not a single moment I have an urge to go back. It's not like going without a phone or computer for a week -- that significantly impacts my ability to get stuff done in the real world.

At the end of the day, kettle-cooked potato chips have a much stronger hold on me than FB. I'm guessing if forced with a choice -- FB or chips -- many people would be like me. 😏

Game Over = The day FB doesn't allow you to turn off email notifications.

The increased neediness of FB was pretty evident this year -- the desperate emails to come back because old buddy Bob posted for the first time "in a while." Fortunately, FB still allows you to turn off email notifications. But when they don't? 💣💀
