What are we missing?[/quote]

There's an occasional bit of useful info.  Most of it's junk.  I felt like I had to join because everyone kept referencing FB, and then I thought I'd enter into some secret world where I'd get all of this useful information.  But alot of it is stupid like 'i ate a muffin' and everyone chimes in 'I like blueberry muffins" or "I just ate a muffin too" and I thought really?? Are these comments for real?  Then I'll find out something useful, like a college friend that I lost touch with is moving nearby, or someone is having a baby.  That's the good stuff.  [/quote]

"Muffin" posters do not appear on my newsfeed. Nor do the sympathy-trawlers, the ones who post nothing but "Ugh! I can't believe this is happening to me!" or "I have never been so tired!" just to get people to ask them about their troubles.

I have just spent the last 20 minutes reading informative/ hilarious/ thought-provoking articles that my friends have posted today. Stuff I never would have found on my own.

The cute kid pictures are ok; I prefer travel pics and observations, and get lots of those. But I'm really in it to know what my friends and family are reading and thinking. That, and news. Just this week, I learned of the arrival of a new baby, an engagement, and a long-ago friend moving to the DC area. [/quote]
