it started with Hi5,

then Friendster,

then Myspace,

then Facebook,

then virb.com ( which is quite alright for music actually since it doesnt take as long as bloody myspace to load :P ),

then something that sounds like Where are you now,

aaaaaAAAAARRRRGGHHH!

next week it’ll be MEMEMEMEME.COM,

or THISISWHATI’VEBEENDOINGSINCEIFLUNKEDOUTOFUNI.COM

or NOWIHAVEAMORTGAGE,2KIDSANDNOLIFE.COM

as nice as it is to get all these invitations, i refuse to join on principle:

- i dont like the fact that someone can keep tabs on me without me knowing, altho i’m pretty sure they could already if they really wanted to.

- those sites just remind me of the gates that you see sheep getting herded into at sheep herding competitions.

- perhaps i dont want to found :P

- and even if i wanted to be found, perhaps that other person doesnt want to be found.

- i’d rather not be “googleable”, cos sooner or later everyone’s life will be reduced to search engine results, and i’d rather it happened later for me.

- go on admit it, you’ve googled people you know, and maybe even yourself :P

couchsurfing.com might be an exception tho cos that actually serves a purpose beyond “LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME!!!”

so ummmm yeah, those are all the excuses for me not joining your network so dont get offended if i dont show up,…..

especially since the real reason is that i can never remember my password.

:P
