What type of FB user are you?

Being locate in Japan, I am only just starting to understand how addictive FB can be, because it took me this long until my friends started using FB to a point where haing a FB account made sense.

So, still in the honeymoon period.
Lets see how it goes from here....

Oh, I remember this stage. I added all of my classmates all the way back to grade 4. I didn't remember names of those prior to that :(

I am an occasional FB user. More often than not, I use it to complain about a company. Seems those that have a corporate FB page really do not like bad customer experiences posted. FB is a bit more immediate than going though a company CS department.

Virgin Mobile replaced my Triumph battery only after I asked about it on their FB page. Messages to VM's CS did not work, so I took it up a notch.

I've connected with old friends I could not find using web searches, so I use FB to find people. It was amazing that people I looked for for years were right there on FB.

Occasionally, I post something that is very crude and terrible. Can't do it here, so FB is where I go. FB is also a great place to rile up those that hate Jailbreakers. I usually post a link to a good info site. Makes some people really mad. I guess I would be described as a terrible FB user because I use it to abuse others.

I am thinking of using FB to advertise my crap. Or not, I do not know.

FB is going public, not sure what that will mean to us occasional users. Not sure why I mentioned it here, but I did.

I would like others to visit my FB page. On not, I do not care. I can be found, but I advise you all to stay away. About all you will find is crass attempts at humor, totally uncalled for insults and crass comments about people I hate sans knowing them.

Over all, I give FB six out of ten.5 stars.

Personally I find FB a sometimes useful but mostly unnecessary resource. I periodically watch my FB account to see what others have to say but mostly see "I'm at this store", "I'm at this restaurant", "I'm at this bar", or "I'm playing this game" sort of posts.

And I found it necessary, a long while back, to restrict and subsequently curtail my posts on the medium...
