I used to but I recently deleted my Facebook, LinkedIn and G+ accounts. Now I wonder how many other people are in my position.

Like you, I had but then deleted my facebook account; however, a professor of my grad school class requires one, so I created a temporary account.

#3I've considered deleting my facebook account, but ultimately decided to keep it because nearly all of my extended family is on facebook only. I did delete nearly all the personally information associated with my account and decline all requests from others saying I went to XYZ school or am related to them in some way.

Yes, I deleted my Facebook account in early 2010. However, I have since created a placeholder account to buy ads and admin a business page for my company. I've logged in exactly once in the past 2 months.

A professor requires a facebook account? Could you elaborate?

Second this question.
I find Linkedin to be of value. I have never had an account on the book and never will.

#8I do have a Facebook account, but I've hidden everybody from my news feed, I don't post anything to my own profile, I use it only to access information about people and for communicate in the groups.

#9I deleted my Facebook some time ago, now. At first I was alarmed by how many times I started to go for it on my phone purely out of muscle memory when bored or waiting in line. Now, I hardly even think of it and feel better being without it.

#10Yes. It is not in my name. My previous one was also not in my name, but got banned for being named Jewish Adolf.
