Am I socially 'out of the loop' since I don't have a myspace/facebook?

But am I really missing out on THAT much?

The only real reason I have a facebook account is to sorta keep up with friends from other parts of the country or overseas. Sadly, it's too hard to keep up with all of them through more personal means such as email or IM or phone. And even so, I rarely check my facebook account.

you have to understand that EVERY girl in college has at least a facebook acct that they check regularly. chicks spend a lot of time looking at their friends' pages and photo albums. if you dont put yourself into their stupid world of tagged pictures of drunken partying you are only hurting yourself, bro.

I use Facebook primarily to keep up with old friends as well as "record" people I meet...it's nice to not have to lose touch with people, and it's very useful to drop someone a line randomly when you feel like it. I was opposed to all these things when I was a senior in college (2000) but I have found them useful since then. Also Facebook is +EV for interaction with females, as stated by an above poster.

yeah facebook/myspace are pretty dumb for talking to your guy friends but they're great for keeping track of girls you want to hook up with. also when girls post [censored] on your wall then other girls see it and it makes you look desirable.

if you don't really care much about girls (not much of a stretch on 2p2) then don't worry about it.

Facebook is surprisingly not horrible, but MySpace is an abyss.

One guy friend of mine used to be obsessed with facebook and got annoyed that I didn't have one and made one for me. I probably never would have gotten around to it otherwise.

You certainly aren't out of the loop but it has helped me get back in touch with people I graduated from HS with that are going to different colleges (of course, a phone or AIM serves the same purpose but whatever).

I like the MyShare section where people can post any video they find from the intrawebz. Other then that and wrting on some friends walls and joining some groups I don't bother with it much.
