Blogging does?/does not? ruin friendships

Like this article affirms about FACEBOOK (How the title concerns the content of the text with precision? I have no idea but it is a good pitch for Facebook users to "dig" on it). As an occasional user of both channels I must admit discomfort and regret when I post too specific account of our activities or clearly irrelevant facts about life-our life. Who should care? Those who do would get to know it anyway...I understand the posture of the author very well. Sometimes I am compelled to feel the same (very, very bored, specially about the silly quizzes people compulsively take and even sillier results that strangely enough they volunteer to disclose!!!!). One should also appreciate the possibilities that this social networking offers. Mixed feelings: One can be creative, save time (no mass-emailing-impolite- but publishing-impersonal yet acceptable-), inform and get informed, have the option of a contact, etc. Anyone can also become annoying, silly, boring repetitive, a nuisance of www proportions! My limit: Never harass others to the point of urging to Twitter. MySpace is too much for certain ages and lifestyle. Who has the time to "secondlife" and "firstlife" efficiently?

By Elizabeth Bernstein in the Wall Street Journal Online:

" Notice to my friends: I love you all dearly. But I don't give a hoot that you are "having a busy Monday," your child "took 30 minutes to brush his teeth," your dog "just ate an ant trap" or you want to "save the piglets." And I really, really don't care which Addams Family member you most resemble. (I could have told you the answer before you took the quiz on Facebook.)..."

I keep this cartoon in mind

The promised explanation and few thoughts about wasting time and registration processes

I already feel much better!

- Has anybody came up yet with a device, application or even a simpler WAY that could manage the amount of names, nicks, keywords and passwords that one is imposed to utilize around the internet? Nowadays even a cat wants to "associate" only with "associates" and demands in its blog/site a registration plus the chunk of memory that goes away with it! (I do have to make a concious effort, an enormous one due to the insignificance of the issue, to remember the way I registered my participation in any site I needed, wanted or just happened to visit) I rarely want to commit so much as to go through a registration process that even though most of the times is free becomes a time waste spectacular after counting the many times per day that one needs to do it.
I decided to keep track in writing, yes, to write them on PAPER!!!!!!!!!!!!! And because I did not want to use any corner of any page I decided to purchase a little notebook for the purpose. A total nonsense.
Should not we devote a serious effort to achieve simplicity when an issue does not ask for more than that? It seems a matter of elementary efficiency.

-I started from the wrong end. I was not cool about having to sit for 2 hours going back and forth from my mail account to 4 different sites today to finally reach the conclusion that I actually did not feel any interest for their content. I did join a fifth one where I hope to be in touch with my cousins, friends and university course mates from very long ago. I won´t create a pitch on it now because it needs a lot of explaining and one long registration process. An undeserved pain.
To be checked as soon as I have the time and the will to perform redundant tasks: Internations.org; A site for ex pats, with connections around the globe. And EUFASA, the European Union Foreign Affairs Spouses Association...I will need some time for these!
Low and high context for the afternoon break. I am a full time mother today with both Emil and Juulia Aliide at home, sick with the flu!

I like blue. I have always. Anything blue.
