Facebook is totally manipulative and I am approaching it with my guard up, but it is actually the only way I can maintain friendships with a bunch of people I am not prepared to sacrifice solely based on their technology choices. :)
LJ: I guess I just don't see ads at all, between adblock in firefox and using w3m half the time anyway? Due to my own technology choices, that one doesn't affect me, though I can see how it would be frustrating. (And I agree on the "friend" thing.)
"Draining but worthwhile" is totally how I would describe my graduate studies. The creativity and involvement is wonderful, the tons of effort to what end is sometimes nervewracking. I mean, what do you do with an MA in English? (I don't particularly want to teach high school.) I'm considering a PhD at some point but that would be another 4-6 years of school and, well, that's lots of school. :) Sometimes I wish that "mastery of the subject" were something that felt attainable in my field at all...
