No more facebook
After 2 years using facebook, and even though I’ve to recognize is a great tool for a bunch of things, today I decided to quit since it’s no longer useful for me for anything but just to waste the little spare time I have nowadays, which I obviously prefer to spend in much better and productive things.
If you had me added as a “friend” don’t get angry because of me removing you from the list, since that’s something I did for every contact I had before going ahead with the “delete account” hidden-link, along with every photo, tag of mine, membership to groups… and so forth. I just wanted to make sure that, as much as possible, every piece of information of mine in the network was deleted before leaving facebook since who knows which pieces of information under my name will remain in facebook after my leave. Hope you all understand my (maybe too paranoid) reasoning.
So, no more “me” under this profile. Just drop me a line or give me a call if you want to contact me from now on.
See you in the real life!

I did this without deleting all of my content, all of my photo tags got reassigned to a random user, i guess facebook reuse their old user ids as much as possible.
Yes, I already thought of that, but I’ve just preferred to make sure not even a picture of mine remained there when I was out… maybe too paranoid, I know… and I still have the feeling that a lot of things will stay there (such as comments I made), but at least this way I feel better and (perhaps naively) safer
I just shared the link to this blog entry in facebook, and made a funny comment about it. Shame that you can’t see it.
Welcome aboard to the ship of ex-Facebook users, arrrrr!!
