Question

Youngster Quit Facebook A youngster quit Facebook in December after spending over three years on the social networking site. With that one act he bid a silent adieu to more than 300 contacts that he had added to his account during the period. Like almost everyone from his ”friend’s circle,” the 20 year old was a regular on the service; visiting it everyday to post photos and status updates but last week a new feature on Facebook called Timeline forced him to reconsider the pros and cons of being on the networking site.    Everyone has some skeletons in their closet and I am just not comfortable with Facebook digging up and displaying all the facets of my life on a bulletin board,’ says this youngster who joined the network in July 2007 while he was in class11.   Facebook, you see, had compressed the time he spent on the site and arranged it in chronological order and while he initially liked the new neatly organized scrapbook-like feature he wasn’t happy to reveal posts from the past those that until recently was hidden under layers and layers of recent updates. Just clicking on a date on the timeline could transport his friends back in time and enable them to view every embarrassing comment link or photo he had posted on his profile.   “I think it’s a recipe for disaster,” he says. “In 2007, I had some wall posts which seemed appropriate at the time but now after a lapse of four years, I have moved on and don’t want them to be openly displayed for all to see.   He is not alone. Many users, worried about how Facebook activity could possibly affect their offline lives, are choosing to commit “Facebook suicide.” While some have privacy concerns others feel that the site that was meant to bring them closer to their friends actually does the opposite- it reduces their friendship to something superficial. Poking and liking are not enough to keep a friendship going,’ says a business analyst. Having quit Facebook three years ago, she prefers meeting her “real” friends face-to-face, instead of reading their trite posts online. ”On Facebook, people hype everyday issues including what they ate and where they went on a daily basis,” says this analyst who continues to use Twitter.  “Facebook has become a time sink and it could not justify the time I spent on it, ”he says,”I spend more time calling up friends or relatives over the phone now……I also go out and meet people whenever possible and have a good offline life. I do not regret the change. “Today, Facebook has 800 million users of which 37 million are Indians. The site has become an online identity for most, and many of those who decided to quit cannot overcome the withdrawal symptoms and return. Facebook, fully aware of its addictive powers, facilitates this return by allowing users to ‘deactivate’ their accounts but continues to store information on its servers so that they can return from their ‘break’, whenever they wish.   Similarly, an engineering student quit Facebook last December four years after joining it. One fine day, he exported all the data from his account into a little zip file and hit the delete button.  I realized that when it came to my friends who really mattered, I could actually keep in touch with them over the phone or by meeting them in real life,’ he wrote in his blog.
