#2I am definitely one those people. But I know friends/family who spend at least 30 mins per day on fb. May be I am spending too much time on HN and no time for fb anymore :)

#3I'm logged out of FB at work for productivity reasons. I read FB probably about twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night.
I'm not missing much.

#5My status updates have gone from about 1/day a couple of years ago, to about 1/week now. Even though I've blocked all apps, etc., I find FB to be too noisy. The only thing I like about FB is that I can keep track of friends' events, like babies, marriages, breakups, trips, etc.

#6FB seems to get into a negative press spiral lately because of the underperforming IPO...suddenly its all just a fad because people want to read about this new super company failing...
But the truth is, it still has CRAZY numbers in terms of Daily/Weekly/Monthly Active users and average time spent on the site. Its a behemoth and will not fall!

#7I never really got why facebook was considered interesting. I made an account because I was pressured by some female friends into doing so but I never log on it (at least 5 months). I know I'm not the norm but still, I feel like facebook is just a fad and that people will get bored of posting every second of their life onto the internet eventually.

Everything falls eventually, the only question is how long do they have in the sunshine.
