    Uh, I post here. That's pretty much it. Used to have fb, twitter, and all of that garbage, but now I have nothing and is glorious. I value my privacy and am so much happier with everyone knowing my business.

    I've got Facebook, but I mainly just share king of the hill photos. I also have Skype and a YouTube. But I havent uploaded anything to it in ages.

    And an Instagram, but I only post cat and food pics on it

    All of them. Except tumblr.

    Part of networking, and also part of why I entered hardcore lurker mode for a while. Meeting lots of industry people, bunches of developers, hitting up dev parties, shit like that.

    I absolutely understand where Pete comes from and there's part of me that envies him, but it's such an ingrained part of my life (and actually, part of my job too - on a small scale, the social media manager locally) that I don't know how different everything would be now without it.

    I used to loathe Twitter.

    That's your profession though, and good for you for being able to market yourself through social media. I'm actually being sincere with that.

    With the type of work I want to get into, it's easier and smarter for me to not post anything about myself. When your potential employer has all candidates go for psychological review, and they ask why you have a picture of yourself drinking a beer, it's easier to just get rid of everything. Plus, anyone I really care about, and vice versa, I have their numbers and we text or call and actually hang out.

    Hmmm.. Tumblr and Skype mostly, though I get on Facebook on occasions, mostly for family and to post pictures of the kiddo for them to see. Otherwise I get bombarded with phone calls asking me to post pics.

    I'm actually a part of the RP community on Tumblr so that's the main reason I'm on there. There's a pretty decent size FF base RP group set up and most of the people there are pretty friendly. It's really laid back and less structured than Forum RP, mostly because it tends to be one on one. I miss the days of big group roleplays and being able to develop big plots and storylines though.

    Only Facebook, but my circle is friends is very small, and my privacy settings are such that I'm only searchable, but nothing I post is viewable. I wanted potential employers to google my name and find my public-facing Facebook, with an image of me, my name, location, and education, but nothing more.

    I have a linkedin as well, but I'm mostly using it to network with my former class mates.

    I have a twitter, but rarely use it, and never tweet anything.

    Not really, it was something that happened for me on the side I kept getting msgs n my following just kinda grew n grew over the years. I never really expected anything from it bt I guess I was lucky. My point was that along with its downsides (eg lack of privacy bt then again Ive never posted nything incriminating), social media eg. instagram, Blogging, Youtube etc is a lucrative career now and can open up so many doors for you.

    Ha! "Career." Do you know what a career is? Brick laying, and you can't do that on a computer, because if you do, the weight of the bricks will break the screen, and mortar will seep into every nook and cranny of the device. Technology and brick laying don't go hand in hand, and that's a fact. Doing anything besides laying bricks is a waste of time. The world isn't going to build itself.

    I blog sometimes about my lucrative career as a brick layer. I also use youtube to show people proper masonry techniques, and sites like Instagram and Facebook to show off my skills to potential contractors.

    I lied. I'm not really a brick layer. I'm just irrelevant.

    It needs to be acknowledged that any way of supporting yourself even if it isn't traditional (or as physically taxing), so long as you aren't stealing or hurting anyone, is a real job. Its sad n pathetic to criticise someone for making a living doing something they love and enjoy and/or are good at. Blogging isn't all that new of a career and despite what you may have heard, it isn't going anywhere. There are tons of people out there making a living doing just this. The pipe dream is to be self-employed n my social media platform has given me n others that opportunity (aside from my main jobs), n that is to be able to create n grow a brand for myself n in the very near future, collaborate with one of my employers n design my own clothes.

    Actually guys, a career is an occupation undertaken for a significant period of a person's life, with opportunities for progress. Occupation, career, whatever. Doesn't matter what you do. It's still valid and relevant to someone.

    I use Facebook and Twitter. I sign up to other things and never use them. Quite frankly, I'd be happier without them sometimes. Harassment isn't fun, and it's just another way to be targeted or stalked.

    This is why I hate this place. I made it perfectly clear that I was being satirical.

    See? No sense of humor. It's a goddamn epidemic. The only "career" a woman has is supporting her husband. That's also a joke, and it's dumb that I have to explain that. It kind of ruins the joke.

    I use Facebook to keep in touch with the 70 some people in this world that I actually care about. I don't use anything else.

    I know that you mean no harm. I'm mildly amused.

    What us doing me harm is all the spam in my inbox from all the reporting going on. I count ten emails in the last six hours. I have seen them. And if I get one more, spam warnings for everyone. <3

    I saw ridiculous satire.

    For what it's worth, I saw no "direct attack" nor indirect. It's quite clear that nothing Clint posts is serious. Almost ever. He's playing a persona on the internet, but not doing anything to hurt anyone with it in the process. Do you really think the guy (or gal) on the other side of the screen is really a brick layer? That he doesn't understand that people actually make careers out of internet fame now? If he's still using a web forum in the age of Facebook, I guarantee he knows that.

    Maybe it's better if you guys just don't step on each others' toes for a bit.

    Ten people complained about my post? Geez, people must really hate brick layers. Brick layers are people too, and they deserve equal rights. To promote my belief in equality, I think I'll start a social media campaign in support of it.

    I don't really use any social medias; I used to, but I deleted those a while back.

    I use this forum, of course, but websites like Facebook and Tumblr and all those are a bit too much for me. Privacy means a lot to me.

    I'm perfectly content with this small community we have here.

    I like Instagram best. I also use Facebook.

    I have a Twitter but I forget about it. I have a wordpress blog that I write things in. I look at other people's tumblrs but don't have my own. I used to use Skype a lot but now I forget to log in. And I've almost been convinced to get a snapchat, but not quite.



    I used bricks to steady my amp because I wanted to tilt it back at an angle last night. So, you know, I'm pretty relatable.

    Most of my social media usage is not based upon interaction, but upon observing/following/digesting information and new content (not including the IM services, which exist solely for interaction). What I use my YouTube account for, as an example, may not be what you think (hint: it's just a glorified bookmarks list.) These are the only ones I use on a fairly regular basis:

    YouTube - for following content providers
    Twitter - for news, not for tweeting/interacting
    SnapChat - for the odd/funny observation or pithy comment to send to friends
    Skype - for messaging friends
    Outdated IM services - for fossils like me who still use 'em
    deviantArt - used like YouTube, but for artists

    The oldest, best one of them all: Good 'ol fashion Human Interaction.


    All jokes aside, this place? And Facebook as a necessity, not a hobby or obsession. If I've got time to just kill, I'm working on something of substance, like writing.

    Skype is my favorite although not too much conversation happens there for me, the perils of being social.
