The downside to removing myself from Facebook is that no one hears my humble brags. For example, I crushed a ride last night. First outdoor ride of the year. And while it’s all over Strava and Endomondo, no one I know hangs out there. Nor do they hang out here. So now I’m bragging into…
Facebook is the most depressing thing in my world. Time to unplug it.
Getting more and more convinced that there has been a disturbance in the force. Weird Facebook status update emails and now some out of the blue SMS spam. It’s not the first time ever so we’re still in the realm of coinkydinks but as the day goes on the more I feel like everyone’s favorite…
So it’s been a little over twelve hours since I deactivated my Facebook account. Other than a low grade itch to check on folks’ statuses, I’m doing okay.

So Facebook doesn’t want to play nice and just give you RSS feeds for a user’s status updates. Used to be you could do that, but not so much any longer. It appears you may be able to generate a status feed using the Graph API, but that’s seriously overkill for my needs. Besides, who…
WTF, Facebook? Can you not properly handle an RSS feed? We shall see. We shall see…
I’m vaguely saddened by the fact that I post all of my bloggy-related stuff directly to Facebook. I get way more readership there. Here’s to trying to change that…
