- DSingularity 8y agoWhy this site ?
- phillipamann 8y agoI feel that this site is just as addictive and with marginal utility as so many other sites and social networks on the internet.
- friedman23 8y agoAgreed, as someone that's never used facebook, I see a lot of the criticisms levied against it and think hacker news and other forms of social news are just as damaging.
- phillipamann 8y agoI've read enough books about the internet now to realize that all of the benefits come with costs. I can be just as addicted to any of the information spouts on the internet. Hacker News provides the same sort of response for me as Facebook might for someone else. It is almost ironic but it is harder to 'delete' Hacker News than Facebook because of the walled garden approach of Facebook.
- sgt 8y agoI see more value in keeping FB than LinkedIn. LinkedIn is just a sad recruitment agent party these days.
- phillipamann 8y agoI think to me the value is equal in a way. It comes down to fear of missing out. What events/social activities will I miss out on by not having Facebook? What possible job/career opportunities will I miss out on by not having LinkedIn?
