Ohmigosh! Another new guy thread!

You sure like to change avatars frequently, Xander. :)

I guess it's the "newcomer can't decide" -disease. I have that too sometimes.

But one friend of mine changes his profile picture @ FB once in a week.

Yeah it's something like that. I was settled for a while but then the 'omigosh guy' avatar showed up and I figured I'd swap to that for a bit. but I'm sticking now, honest. No more changes for the time being. As for FB, though I pretty much use it as an online photo gallery (44 albums and counting) I haven't changed my display picture in 3 years.


As for the whole drunken thing, I don't get why people feel the need to do it. It's mostly a miserable experience. I'm sure feeling the cold worse, being sick and falling all over the place are fun. Never mind the next morning. But that's just my take, i'm not saying don't drink or that. But on those times i'm at a club, which is once every second blue moon, then getting a little tipsy might help a bit.

Remember the teachings of Elfen Lied. When your miserable, you need something more miserable than yourself. I want to get drunk hehe. And yeah I have nothing to take photos with on the go, my phone is useless and cba with DSi. Ipod is all I use so its just webcam I take pictures with. I hate my face too so I rarely take any. Im in need to update this picture though...

[Xander]

Well I'm an amateur photographer of sorts and even I never take photos of myself. For one, I can't be bothered and secondly I can never take a decent photo of myself. Anythign else is good but this is a no no. It's like some weird thing I have, which is why my FB pic is so old.

Three years? THREE?
Has facebook existed that long? :D
I joined in winter 2009.
I don't use it much... It's too messy.
Mostly I just log in to see if there's any messages for me. I use my own picture gallery to publish pictures.
I don't want any service to modify my pictures (lower quality).

Add me zucca?

I'm on faceboot as well...

But not for long... Something interesting is shaping up... And it's looking like the faceboot killer app.

It sounds like a pretty neat idea they have there. I'll be checking it out when it starts up for sure. And it looks like they've over-exceeded their backing total of $10,000. Well done them.

[Zucca]

Yeah. I've read about diaspora. Sounds very good!

Facebook is quite dull. Funny how people spew their private shit on there.

[Wing-0]

I dunno, I feel distrust towards facebook, but I have friends I barely communicate with because we lost contact before that use it, so I'm keeping it for now...

However, once Diaspora hits, I'm all over it.

Funny how people pull sickies at work then post them on FB and get caught. Or break up on FB. It's funny because it's so incredibly sad.

Same here. I have a bunch of folks on FB that I've probably not heard from in ages and probably won't hear from again in future. I only seem to use it as a place to upload my photos to, which rarely get looked at. As soon Diaspora comes along I'm definitely going to get an account registered.
