Today marks 1 year since I quit Facebook

I_quit_facebook

 

I quit Facebook on May 1, 2010. I spent a few days before that saving pics and links I posted, saying goodbey and by around 1 pm I was ready to bow out. 

I followed instructions on how to quit (not just suspend) my account and Facebook told me I had two weeks to reconsider then it would be permanently deleted. I never logged in again and I never heard from them again. They probably kept my data, but that's my fault for trusting them. 

I did not grow horns, I did not lose all my friends. I did save a lot of time and start 2 blogs and an active twitter feed with the same time I used playing mafia wars, taking inane quizzes (that got my data) and reading pointless updates from people I didn't even really know.
