There is a large number of techies talking about closing their Facebook accounts. I myself closed my account twice now. Both times it was right there when I logged in again. It was as if it was just paused for a little while. It’s very much not like WordPress. On WordPress if you close an account, you can never bring it back. No one can re-use that name, it is completely over at that point.
There are a few places talking about how to close the accounts. I personally do not think either will work.

Rumor has it that if you mention any of this on facebook, your post will get deleted. If you post it again your account will get deleted. That to me sounds like the only way to get your account deleted properly. :-) . Just be sure to clean everything off your account first.
Gotta beat the machine.
Twitter is where it’s at. Exactly what it says it is.

I myself Have been thinking for a while that it probably should have happened a while back.
The big issue is everyone says that twitter has no market. Yes they do. It’s 100% plain simple advertisement already.
Twitter should have had adsense on the top of every page in the script from the start. they would have easily cleared as much money as google could offer by now. But they played it smart and pointed at nothing but keeping the users happy. Sad think is, whom ever is to purchase twitter, will have a goal different of the twitter group, so expect to see some changes. what made it popular will no longer be there. The freedom to post at no cost, without intrusive ads. We hoard to that kind of atmosphere. Now we all wait with our fingers on our twitter aps in our cell phones, and wonder when we have to uninstall it.
have you seen the new look of facebook?
Seems not many are happy with the new look.
I myself make it loud and clear that I hate facebook and it’s interactivity.
The place is the antisocial network. You can’t call it a social network if the only
friends you can have, are friends you already have.

We are not happy, and we are not stupid
Despite those numbers, despite rabid user loyalty, you’re losing money, so much money you got delisted from Forbes’ Masters of the Universe Billionaires list. At the same time another social network, much smaller than yours with less functionality and more questionable future, is gaining a lot of buzz and membership.
looks like yelp.com is under fire
according to

The complaints highlight an irony for Web sites that stimulate online communities and let users speak their minds. As the sites make the world more transparent, giving people the power to discuss everything from a great pizza to a bad date, the sites’ own transparency is often questionable, as consumers and businesses struggle to understand how they operate.
I have been very busy with my social sites.
I will index them all in google and yahoo very soon. When I am done after I get a few people on each of them and get a few complaints and requests so
I can tweak the site. The launches will all be at the same time. So yeah I will get very drunk and and celebrate my efforts on that day.
Thanks to those who have helped and believed in my efforts and knew that I could do this.
I will take two shots for each of ya.
This is what I have been wasting my time with.
