^ this is exactly the point I was trying to make.
It's a bizarre way of life, filming the present with the sole intention of trying to impress people with your supposed 'lifestyle' in the future. Thus spending that experience behind a camera, it's ridiculous. Like the teds who have their iphones and ipads out at the match filming for ultimately someone elses benefit, thus losing the genuine 'live' feel of it.
I have no part of it and never will.
Don't really know tbf, all this talk about twatter prompted me to have a butchers at his page.

That is not the norm though. Yes, it happens, I know people that do that too. however, I have (*G runs off for a quick look*) 347 friends on my Facebook account, at a push I could probably name four people that post about anything and maybe two like the example Bod gave.
From looking at his video list yeah.
The lad doesn't seem to care who sees his wardrobe or its contents, usually all over his bedroom floor.
Sad really.
When I said 'you' I meant you in the general sense like when you say 'you pay your money, you take your chance' kind of thingI don't worry about any of them dude. Each to their own
I don't think twitter or FB makes one [is that better] a weirdo, it just brings it out if you are. Same with addiction to it, if you have an addictive personality, it's just another way it will show itself. You don't seem to be an addictive type so you really could give up anything, anytime. Others not so sure. Look at posters who never miss a day on here, could they just give it up altogether - I doubt it. If this site shuts down, while most or a lot would walk away, they'll just find another outlet.

I'd say its good that he's happy enough within himself to do what he does and not care about what you consider to be "sad" [HASHTAG]#controversial[/HASHTAG]
The other one that gets my ****ing goat is people who put **** like this: (Names made up)
Thank you [Evelyn Chambers] and [Luke Smith] for a lovely evening! Dinner was lush.
Now who was that thanks for? Me if I am invited to dinner, i will thank the person personally, either as I am leaving or when I get home via a phone call.
And when you called them you wouldn't say, "thank you Evelyn Chambers" as they are your friend.
So for whose benefit was that message? You are thanking them publicly for having you over for dinner?! The ****?
You wouldn't stand up in the pub and say out loud so everyone could hear, that you thank them for having you for dinner?
Its basically saying "Look how cool my friends are, look how much they like me!"

I know you did
Facebook (and Twitter) get a bad press because the addicted, post about anything types are used as an example all the time but they are actually few and far between. Most people using it in what would be considered an normal way. Much like a hell of a lot of people see chat forums (effectively what Not606 is) as a sad way of life and only geeky losers would use such a thing. Is that true?
Conversely I could show you half my family who do exactly that.
Some people use it for genuine social purposes but there's plenty of others who live their lives through it, and it's not always an age thing either I know a woman who's nearly 70 and is on the thing literally all day.
It's a culture we have to get used to. At one time we told our kids off for texting at the table when they were supposed to be eating, now my other half does it too.
At one time you'd be saying 'have you got your keys' now it's 'have you got your phone'. When I was young, I used to panic if I went out without my watch on, now it's compulsory not to move anywhere [toilet included] without your phone.

No arguing that it doesn't happen, I accept that it does. My point is, people automatically dismiss Facebook / Twitter as a place where only that stuff happens which isn't fair. See my comment to JB about chat forums etc and the common view on them. Do you think we are all geeky losers on Not606?
hahaha, exactly.
It's not for the purposes of the people actually involved, it's sole aim is to project an image of lifestyle that might impress others.
It was probably ****e aswell

It's completely fair, as it's an opinion
I have no doubt that both platforms do have some positive uses, but for me - the negatives outweigh the positives. I don't want any aspect of my real life (i.e. identified by name) being broadcast over the net. I'm actually internet invisible through choice, as I don't want people being able to look up my personal life on the net without my knowledge or permission.
