Why I Will No Longer Be Using Facebook!
Why I Will No Longer Be Using Facebook!
I very rarely talk about other websites, because it is typically not an acceptable course of action when one website owner starts talking about another website. It is just a frowned upon action throughout the industry.
However, over the course of the last few months as Facebook has gotten more and more popular and more and more folks are starting to use it, I've had more and more requests from people I know to start using it myself more.
Yes, I have an account at Facebook.
No, I do not log into it every day.
No, I do not even log into it once a week.
Heck, sometimes I even go a month or more without logging into that website.
To me ChristianBlog.Com has almost everything I am after in a website.
So, why do I not use Facebook when it seems like half the world is using it?
For the same exact reason I never used myspace!
Advertisements with +80% naked women.
Sure I am a guy, and thus one would think that nature would have me wanting to look at almost naked women, but guess what... I don't visit social websites to look for pictures of naked women - I visit social websites because of what they are... social websites.
The last time I was over at Facebook, here is the very first thing I encountered.

Now, if you really really really want to see what it was that made me stop going to Facebook, click the image to see what I was shown in some advertisement... but be warned... there is (what I would consider) an unacceptable amount of clothing on this person... considering Facebook is suppose to be a website that allows minors to be members.
First off, there is no way that person is "over 30"... she's hardly 18 years old if you ask me!
Secondly, she's wearing nothing but a pair of underwear and a wife-beater shirt.
Thirdly, and the way I figure it... if Facebook is going to be throwing THAT kind of advertisements in my face, I'd rather just not visit it.
Shame on Facebook for not controlling their advertisements in such a way as to make it family-safe!
And rest assured that we will NEVER allow that kind of advertisement here at ChristianBlog.Com!
So, for those of you looking for me on Facebook... you might as well give up - because I don't plan on visiting that website very much (if at all) in the future!
