Facebook – bad

My uncle over at Newmexiken.com has been alerting all those that are interested in the concentrated evil over at Facebook.  Of course, I have a face book page – 2 actually.  Alright 3, but one is abandoned but they won’t let me get rid of it and it only adds to the general confusion.   That’s why I hate Facebook.  Unfortunately, it’s a necessary evil in this day and age of self promotion, so I have my personal page and a fan page for my author self. 

I know that there are all kinds of very serious concerns over security and privacy over there, but that’s not my problem with Facebook.  I very rarely do anything with my pages.  So much so that people have asked me why I bother.  I have so much other writing to do that I can’t possibly waste computer time with that nonsense, except that I know from a marketing standpoint it’s not nonsense so I turn my attention to it every once in a while.  And every time I do I get sucked into a black hole of chatting.

I was chatting with two friends while trying to write this post, in fact.  It’s damn near impossible to write anything intelligent while having two separate conversations.

Regardless – the pages are there and I am getting much better about updating them.  Find my page at Amylynn Bright and of course, Kelli Daymor is there also.  Ask to friend us.  We’ll say yes.  And there’s always a very real opportunity you can get me to chat, too.  Apparently, I’m always up for a distraction.
