Does anyone still use Facebook? Seriously, I'm medicine. It doesn't even come up anymore. The only thing that reminds me is HN. My daughter and her friends seem unimpressed.
The only reason I haven't deleted my profile is that I don't want to cede the namespace. Don't cross the street to get your ass kicked.
- laureny 13y ago> Does anyone still use Facebook? 1.1 billion people. Which makes you part of the majority on the planet that doesn't use it. Does that make you feel good or were you going for the hipster angle?
- niels_olson 13y agoI'm on HN, I'm probably aware of how many people use FB. The question was more to the issue of leading minds. Are smart people, people looking to the future, using Facebook? In my slice of meatspace, the answer is no. I was hoping to tap into the tech sector youngins to shed some light on their experience.
- Radix_ 13y agoI think there is something there. My 13 year old sister does not want a Facebook. I got her to get a g+ thinking 4 way video chat would be just her thing and she posted for a bit but she and her friends prefer Skype); the AIM of today. Ten years of that sort of success and whatever is HN then will be talking about FB the way HN speaks of Yahoo now.
- marincounty 13y agoYes--I use a fake name in order to comment on news articles. I very rarely go to the site. I wonder how many people do the same thing?
