Virtual Suicide

After quitting Facebook over two years ago I've only met a few people who have done the same. Of the people I have met, most of them have either started back, or from time to time get on, and then deactivate it when they sign off. I myself sometimes sign on to a friends account to see pictures only available on facebook but, for the most part, try to stay away from it.

a friend of mine posted a link to this article which introduced me to something I had never heard of; Virtual Suicide. This site, and this site are both committed to that.
