I know of plenty of people who are not on Facebook whatsoever, but are there any users here who do not have a Facebook account, but use Google+ on a regular basis? If so, why?
A few reasons:
- It's prettier
- it's easier (and FB isn't HARD by any means, so I think that says something)
- "Circles" was such a good idea, FB copied it (but not as well
- Much better methods of managing your feed. FB just decides for you what you are going to see. G+ does to BUT for every person who can post in your feed you can *click* Show me more\less of this persons posts.
If you are in the GOOG ecosystem, using gmail, google search, google docs, it just falls that you may use G+.
I find FB to be buggy and unstable, as well as a nuisance. But, I don't use the GOOG system, so I don't gravitate to G+.
I never ever set up Google Plus, but apparently they set it up for me. I never use it, and have no idea what it looks like. I prefer to stay with Facebook, although I don't use it much either.
I use both Facebook and Google+. Most people that I know (except some of my immediate members) use Facebook and that is the best share stuff with them. But I have a few immediate family members that only use Google+ (and aren't interested in Facebook at all) and therefore I need to use it for sharing stuff with them.
I loved MySpace! Although what I hated about it was that it kind of killed off people's desire to build their own webpage. But at least MySpace allowed you to customize your page, add music to it, etc... Of course, like with everything else, people always went overboard on the customizations! Some pages loaded so slowly that I couldn't even visit those pages. I finally wound up disallowing flash and javaScript on my page, so that nobody could clog my "wall" up with those flashy messages.
And it seemed like Christmas time when I'd log in and see a Private Message, New Friend Request, and new Wall Post....
I figured Facebook would eventually kill off MySpace, but I've never really liked Facebook. I just have used it because everybody else I know and like to keep up with uses it.

one social media account is enough for me although I do have Twitter and Pinterest. I don't use those 2 much

Does it still exist? lol I wasn't too much into social media until 2009 when Facebook was at its peak.
