I have stayed 1 year away from facebook. I restarted using it about 6 months ago. I can't evaluate if I was happier during that year as it is very hard for me to quantify being "happy". Although there are a few points i take from that time: + loads of free time + more focus on stuff that i think is more productive + no need to manage so many events + spent time talking to relatives instead of typing with them (in person and/or in phone) - loss of conectivity with friends (if you are not on facebook you won't get invited to many events) - not being aware of small trends (like the new meme or the current 'internet localized scandal' as in 'the host of the show x was caught drunk') - lost track of certain creative friends that only publish stuff on facebook ~ being regarded as a anti-social by certaing groups ~ not caring about stuff that are not that important and is not actually worth the time ~ looking at people using facebook and thinking "i once was a zombie just like you"
