SoFlaJets Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Not at all. Have you maybe considered that the remarkable piece of technology that enables you to keep in touch with the entire world via several mediums and market yourself for free isn't the problem? here was my original point RJF: "The other thing about FB was that competing musicians were going to my page and seeing where I was going and then trying to steal my gigs by undercutting me-that sucked and I'm glad I'm off of that site-for good" It had nothing to do with any (personal) "problem" I was having or any criticism about the technology-I just kind of felt that it wasn't doing what I had hoped that it would do (and at one time DID do) for me-business-wise. I don't know, but somewhere along the line it changed among the south Florida musician community-and I'm not the only cat that feels this way, or that saw and felt the change... It was a great tool for a while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garb Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Zuckerberg's about to come close to having Buffet-levels of worth. I don't think you guys ruined it much. I do find it funny seeing older people tell each other they wish they could keep in touch more as they haul giant photo albums into restaurants to explain what they're up to. True, true. Those bulky photo albums are cumbersome. It's awfully nice, however, to actually see a freind....talk to them in person and share things personally. An actual, in-person, conversation! Holy eff! The old, white person's way, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Internet friends do not exist right Theresa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garb Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Internet friends do not exist right Theresa? They do .....but, honestly, I think the term "friend" has changed. Just because I sat behind you in Junior High School Spanish Class doesn't exactly make you my friend. It's just someone who was in my Junior High School Spanish Class a gazillion years ago.

Jetfan13 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Facebook has its good side also. I hooked up with my favorite cousin in the world through Facebook after not seeing her for over 30 yrs. And I keep in constant contact with my Jets Road Trip buddies too.Dont put anything on there you don't wantto share and don't accept friends if you don't like them or trust them.

GATA Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I don't like the fact it's like Stalkerville. But I'm a part of a sports group there and I can keep in contact with my Family in Europe and South America so that's a very big plus for me. But more power to ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
