After I deleted my Facebook I realized it had been a source of stress for me. A lot of people (at least in my experience) use Facebook to ask folks like to me attend functions that I really rather wouldn't, or support some organization, or attend some charity fun run, or whatever. Plus, the majority of my 'friends' on Facebook I really could have done without. There's not a lot of point in hanging on to the people I spent two weeks at summer camp with years ago. If find that if someone really wants to contact me they will, and my social interactions are more meaningful that way.

I'm guessing I'll have the same experience. What's strange is that I can go months with no meaningful interactions on FB but the moment I decide I want to get rid of my account, I received a message from an old friend I haven't spoken to in years. I actually was excited to hear from her. Turns out her family will be visiting Michigan at the same time I will and we are going to get together. It's as if Zuckerberg planned it ;-)
