The Social Network Movie Trailer: Are You Still Using Facebook?
June 29th, 2010
Are you still using Facebook? Of course you are. Well, this October, you will be watching it on the big screen, because Mark Zuckerberg’s story will come to your neighborhood multiplex, courtesy of acclaimed director David Fincher.
Based on the book The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook: A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal, I’m sure that this movie will be very interesting, telling the tale of the turbulent beginnings of the social networking juggernaut.
During the holidays, I decided to stop using Facebook. I still check in from time to time, but overall, it’s only once every few weeks, not daily. I used to have a tab open while I was working, checking up what was going on. At one point, I just stopped caring about my so-called fake and virtual friends. Between my blog, twitter, and email, as well as all of the feeds of the blogs I follow, I’ve got enough to check out. I’m not really interested in reconnecting with some douchebag I used to know in high school. How about you guys?

The novelty has definitely worn off, but I still use it to read and respond to the friends I don’t get to see much. Granted, those friends are a pretty small portion of the total number of “friends” on facebook. I plan on seeing the movie, do you? – http://evologynow.wordpress.com
I plan on seeing the movie, although exactly how this will happen, I won’t really say. But suffice it to say that I’ll see it when it comes out.
I only use FB now for work related issues. I never post anything at all, nor is FB linked to anything else, like Twitter, etc.
Check out the trailer for Catfish, the Sundance hit documentary, is poised to be the most controversial film of 2010 because it exposes the grim reality of our modern world. http://bit.ly/anE6RZ
