Facebook: Should I stay or should I go?

I admit it. I dislike most of Facebook. Yet I still use it. Here’s why:

What I dislike:
- the time I waste on it
- posting things you would never say in person
- invitations to games
- all memes
- trying to argue my point about anything (Facebook may be the worst place to try to change someone’s mind)

Why I use it:
- I can stay connected to people without having to talk to them! (or maybe this should be on why I don’t like it?)
- it’s the most common, therefore, the best way to distill information (ironically, you’re probably reading this because you saw the link on FB)
- more people read updates about our church plant, which I hope results in more people praying for us

What say you? Is Facebook getting on your nerves? Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?
