All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Social networking sites are beyond lame, they're retarded and unnecessary.

I agree with zaleschiemilgabriel unfortunately, SPAM! :roll:

Joining facebook isn't glorious. Do you really want that a company manage your friends?

That's pretty sad.

Yeah, I've actually got a standing boycott against such sites....

Oh wow, a social networking group for OSDevers. What has the world come to? If you want to join a "group," try a newsgroup, ie. alt.os.development.

Newsgroups are for serious business. And old too. And ridden with spam

I once looked at the terms of agreement of one. In essence I would allow them give away my emailaddress and send spam. Since then I boycot all that stuff.

In that case, stick with the OSDev.org forum, or make a separate email account for newsgroups. :-D

I do have a facebook accout, but i rarely use it.
Once in a while i recieve an email telling me that someone i have lost contact with wants to add me as a friend and that kinda nice. It's more likely to meet old friend on face book than on the street.

But I'm not joining any os group.
This was supposed to be a cool signature...

I have a Facebook account that I hardly use too. It gets annoying have tons of emails from it saying people at school have thrown a bloody chicken at me or given me a werewolf bite! I don't care!

So, I won't join, and I won't even have an account on practically any other social networking site.
