I do not really want to be, but I am back on Facebook - or, as I like to call it, Faceplant. I left FB several months ago because I got tired of all the BS changes, especially what they had done with the whole "News Feed" / "Live Feed" thing. And, after being gone this long - I deactivated my account in January - I still nothing has changed. I just want to be able to see what is on my friends' minds. I am really not all that interested to know what company they recently became a fan of or who they are now friends with - that is, unless two of my friends are now friends when I didn't even know they knew each other. But, since my friends and family only update other people about changes in their lives through FB and since Google is not doing much in the way of promoting orkut (apparently they are working on something else more in the line of twitter), I had to sign up.

(ETA) I noticed this little nugget while editing my settings, "Live Feed automatically determines which friends to include based on who Facebook thinks you want to hear from most." How the hemorrhaging frak would Facebook know who I want to hear from?
