Thanks for the link Doug, others may check it out, but as a computer security professional, I consider "Facebook" to be an open invitation to hackers to steal your personal life details and use them for nefarious purposes... I NEVER visit any facebook page. Heck, even Al Qaeda uses that medium to communicate when they can get away with it...

In fact, I don't FB, twitter or Instagram... and hope you all don't either.

As a former security professional, I wholeheartedly agree. No FB, no Twit, no Instagram, no "social media" at all for me. I can't believe how freely people post their personal info. My kids think I am "too old", and "I don't get it", but the whole "social media" thing gives me the creeps.

I wish I had the idea to start this though! I never thought this will get so big, and make this kind of money. Maybe I am too old.

THANK YOU! As one computer professional to another, I can only say "AMEN BROTHER!".

I tell people "I'm not on face***k, and YOU SHOULDN'T BE EITHER!". Aside from all the security concerns, these sites were all created for teenagers - and what happens on them is usually teenaged DRAMA. No thank you. And I *REALLY* don't get TWITter...
