I don’t have Friendster/Facebook/MySpace accounts. And I intend to keep it that way, insyaAllah.
A question constantly asked by my friends is, why?
Because I don’t need one. It doesn’t serve me any purpose. I’m not interested in other people’s lives. Or browsing through their pictures. Or commenting on their walls. Or playing FB games. Or knowing the current state of their moods.
Those do not tell me what I need to know about people.
“Buat lah FB. Boleh keep in touch!”
A sentence which, please forgive me, annoys me the most. So what did people use to keep in touch before FB existed? Asap? Ketuk drum? Kertas cawan?
FB is the easiest way to update ourselves on people’s lives. It is not the only way to keep in touch.
In my opinion, those who say it are the ones who could not be bothered. Of course. Why go through all the troubles when it’s just one click away?
Buta technology sungguh.
Because I appreciate friends who remember my birthday not by knowing it through FB, but because they care. I appreciate an email on their lives more than a short comment on the wall. And most importantly, I’m able to recognise friends apart from those who are not. There are people, “friends”, which frankly, I don’t care about.
All these, I will only discover by not having a FB account. I do not care for those who do not deserve it.
I blog. I read your blog. I’m not totally absent from this virtual world.
I’m here, only if you care.

haha i miss sending you emails la sa! i think i should start doing that again. i remember sending you a long one about miri and and my licenses. hahaha!
i’ve realized this long ago.
without having those kind of socializing web,
friends would appreciate friendship better.
nanti lama tak jumpa, rupa2nya kwn kita tu dah kawen, dah ada anak bla3. n that’s a lot of stories to share, lagi la gila excited lama tak jumpa.
instead of kita tgk update dia hari2, gamba dia ngan pakwe dia makan suap2 pun nak publish kat wall. last2 jumpa dah kawen ngan org lain dan bukannya dgn pakwe yg dalam gamba kat fb. tak ke malu tu.
one of the contoh la.
lagipun, not every friends yg dalam friends list tu akan keep in touch ngan kita. i have 570+ on my friends list on Fb. all are friends because i rarely give approval to friend requests from unknown people.
tak tegur, tapi kita nampak dia online or update status. sekurang2nya kita tahu schoolmate kita tu maseh hidup.
lolz.
lol! and i’m one of the “nisa buatlah fb senang i see you ba”
somehow, i just realised and yes, agreed 100001% with you. fb isn’t the only way to keep in touch.
NOW we are in touch kan?
=)
hugs!
