I don't have a myspace page, a facebook page, or any page (god knows how many there are).  I don't use AIM, chatrooms etc.....although I do have a Yahoo messenger account which I infrequently use.

I feel socially challenged on the web it seems.  Wink

Anyone else like me?

No, you're not alone. Not having one of those pages is a sign of intelligence as far as I'm concerned.

I'm exactly the same, GM3.  If people want to contact me they can email or call me.

I use AIM, but that is mostly when I'm working with groups of ppl on a large project or during a fantasy sports draft.  No facebook or MySpace just shows that you have intelligence over a pea

No MySpace or Facebook here (though I'm told that they can be a good tool if you are trying to market something to a bunch of people at once).  I have an AIM account which I rarely use.  I have two Yahoo accounts, though I don't chat through them much.  I run a few websites though, so I guess that's a bit different than you.  hahaha

When you're in college, you're pretty much peer-pressured to have a Facebook account, which is the only reason I have one.  But then again, I had one way before it was open to the general public.

Not really; I have a myspace page, but my friends made me get one, and I don't use it all that often.

I've never had a personal myspace page although my band has one.

I just made a facebook a few weeks ago.  I'm not sure how long I'll bother to keep that up.

I don't really get what the point of AIM is, since I already have aol.

I have MSN, mostly to talk to my father in Saudi Arabia. I have AIM to talk to a few friends here and there.

I have Facebook, but I don't plan on using it excessively.

For the record, I'm not criticising those that do by the question, but until now I thought it was just me.

I'm not really into those social networking sites. Though I have been thinking of getting a MySpace page cause I have a friend on there and I.... well..... really really like him. Kiki

Pleased to meet you.

I am the ultimate luddite.  I wouldn't own a computer or a cell phone if my business didn't require it.

Why does not having a Facebook or a Myspace make you intelligent? Why is it stupid to have one?

I can understand if you don't like it, but why the need to trash those that do have one and enjoy it? How does it make them stupider?
