So, convince me...or not?

<p>I am a troglodyte in many ways.  One of the most obvious is my firm refusal to engage in Facebook.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My MIL wanted to friend me.  Gak.  (As if she could dislike me more!)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So, I do not have a FB account.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My degree program has a facebook page where they go discuss things relevant to the field.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is it worth joining for that?  It's not mandatory.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Should I?  Shouldn't I?</p>

<p>  If you want someone to support a decision not to join, consider me a fellow Luddite.  No Facebook account, nor any plans to set one up. I'm keeping up with the people I want to just fine using such old-fashioned technologies as email, telephone calls, or (dare I say it) even regular snail mail.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>  No Twitter, either. While <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><em><strong>I</strong></em></span> think I'm a pretty interesting guy, I'm not so conceited to think that others are dieing to hear my latest banalities.</p>

<p>  The only reason I have a camera in my cell phone is because that's the only way you can get one with a PDA - and the only reason I have the PDA in the cell phone is because you can't get a stand-alone PDA anymore. I've never texted anyone, and I made sure that they not only did not activate any sort of internet access through the phone, but that they also set it up so I couldn't even accidently log in to the internet.</p>

<p>  The world will actually go on quite nicely even if you're not connected to something 24/7/365.</p>
