Your Opinion on Facebook

[12thMan]

Anyway, facebook is facebook. What I mean is you go there to share details of your life through words and photos. On a very basic level, that's all there is to it. Some people take it to the extreme, others not so much.

Similarly many of us visit Warpath to post pictures from training camp, photos and videos of live football games, our man caves, spouses, babies, and friends. We discuss and share intimate details of our lives: Weddings, deaths and births, firings and hirings and everything in between. Hell, there's been more advice given here than Dr. Phil could only dream about! Seriously. Just about every damn thing under the sun is and has been discussed, analyzed, and dissected here on Warpath. We've made this into much more than just a football forum, we're a community. And that's what facebook is all about, your own little community that you shape.

I don't always come to Warpath to talk football. So to completely dismiss facebook as some freaky, new social phenomenon, to me, means that one isn't completely informed about what facebook is/isn't or they're not aware, or at least honest, about how they choose to interact with others here on Warpath in a very similiar way; as a social outlet.

I suppose on some level what we do here is less acceptable by social norms. I've never met any of you, yet I visit and talk to you almost daily. At least on facebook I know all the mofos I'm talking to. My 12 cents.
