[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 383539, member: 9240"] When I was traveling 40 weeks a year it was my one way to stay connected with people I know. Through it I have reconnected with countless old friends and deepened some formerly casual relationships. I check it in the morning with my coffee and again in the evening. There's a lot of noise there, and I've filtered and blocked people and sites that make it a nuisance, but with my current roster of rather well read friends I get access to better and more accurate news than I'd get from the mass media. As for business, it's almost useless. I've gotten more action from well tagged posts on Twitter and Instagram, because I will not pay FB to "boost" my posts. For those who hate the ads and annoying FB add-ons, I highly recommend a browser add-on called FB Purity ([url=http://www.fbpurity.com/]F.B. Purity - Clean up and Customize Facebook[/url]) that allows you to selectively block the various ads and sites that they stick in your news feed, as well as guarantee that you're looking at the "Most Recent" feed and not "Top Stories" as defined by FB.
