I don’t proclaim to be “holier than thou” by leaving Facebook. And I’m not a Luddite–I blog and make Flash videos and stay informed about the latest and greatest with my favorite gadgets. But I was there when Facebook fell apart in the face of its greed. I didn’t like what I saw and took it upon myself to exit, stage right. Since leaving, I’ve seen so much more that I don’t like about Facebook and I am so glad I left when I did. —Karissa Kilgore

to Facebook.

Yes, I invited you. That was when I believed in Facebook as a good way to keep in touch with people. I realize I’m in the minority because I no longer believe that.
