I've noticed you use Twitter a lot. :)

I can't imagine Google being down! It's funny how fast you get used to things. I was just looking for something that was posted on LJ in 2007 and suddenly I wondered if we used tags back then. I still remember when they were new, slightly suspicious and/or unreliable, and now I use them all the time...

Lol, I didn't even know they were DOWN. That's how much I dislike using Facebook. :P

I check it often when I'm bored but I don't really miss it when it's down. I haven't ever noticed it being down though...

I'd never heard of it being down! Not like Twitter or LJ. Some of my family is super addicted to it. :P

Huh. Facebook is down? I'd have probably never noticed.

I've never noticed it being down, either. Once there was something wrong with my computer and I took it to be repaired, and I said something jokingly about missing it while it was gone. The guy at the store said, wry, that yes, it's awful when you can't check Facebook all the time. I was confused and later even offended... hee. But omg Facebook is so not what I miss about the internet! Fandom > Facebook.

:/ I wonder if he'd have said that to a man. O_o Fandom >>>>> Facebook!

paceus January 30 2011, 20:59:51 UTC

He would probably have said (or thought without mentioning it out loud) something about porn to a man. And, ironically, that would have been more accurate in my case too!

Fandom >>>>> Facebook!

Exactly!

I'm long past caring. I spend most of my online time on sites that don't go down. I'd mind if LJ were down early in the day since I like to check it over breakfast. But once I've checked it? Nah. :D

paceus January 30 2011, 20:53:02 UTC

It's kind of neat how things change like that, though, isn't it? At one point I would have cared a lot if LJ was down. Now I don't feel like I depend on it so much.

As long as I have e-mail I can communicate with friends. The rest doesn't matter. I used to miss chat but I think I'm past that.

Facebook was down? Huh.

Going by what I've seen posted after LJ outages, there's a group of people out there feeling like they need to re-evaluate how much time they spend on their internet pastimes. (And most of them will probably end up spending as much time--or more--as they did before.)
