i'm facebookin'

myspace got creepy. and just as well- facebook is the better community to have. i'm still new in town, but the place is growing on me and i like it.

i once thought i valued my privacy. now, i display my life online. my personal security is on a downward spiral and i can't seem to want to stop it. what is it about having an online presence that appeals so darn much?

this video scares me, but not enough. sometimes i wonder just what exactly this foreshadowed doom-bringing 666 will be and if we're already exposed to its source... and then i think of my old myspace page. my website. my flickr account. my vimeo. my shelfari. my blogger. my yahoo messenger, my skype phone list, my many forums, my ebay, my paypal, my online banking, my saved googlemaps, my bookmarks. and now, my facebook.

we're so far gone- it's too hard to pull out. it's scary. it's unstoppable. it 'hurts so good'. a life before all this tech is unfathomable. even the most simple of us are so glad we switched from dial up to broadband. we celebrate every aspect of the advancement of our technological souls.

even tonight, i made 3 new facebook friends and it felt like an accomplishment. ... i love that i finally have friends listed in the 'regional friends' section on facebook. yay. genuine pleasure but realistically, i just linked myself to more people for the CIA to find and track me through. watch the video. you'll flip out.

these virtual communities are insane and yet, entirely addicting. is it better to stop before i'm in over my head? and what's over my head? have i reached it?
