(Reader: Charles) My First and Only Facebook Page

Reader Post | By Charles

According to Wikipedia: “On September 26, 2006, Facebook opened to everyone at least 13 years old with a valid email address.”

That was two days after I moved to Canada.  24 September 2006 is the official date that I officially established permanent residence in Canada.

But on that date, I already had a Facebook account. I set it up in the summer of 2006 after I read an article in Information Week about the future of “social networks”, and their importance to IT professionals. In the future, it was claimed, professionals would get jobs through their internet connections, their “social networks”. It made sense to me, so I got a Facebook account, even though at the time they were limited only to Harvard University and a few other select universities. I had published a successful technical book several years earlier, which had been republished in a 2nd “revised and updated” edition … that was probably how I got it.

In the 18 years or so since then, I have never met a single person who had a Facebook account before I did … and that’s a huge irony, since I refuse to touch the platform now.

In 2006, I found Facebook completely useless and (not much has changed) a complete waste of my time.  I forgot about it … until in 2007, everyone started jumping on it and trying to get as many FB “friends” as possible … oh, it was hot new stuff, and people started finding my dead account on Facebook.  

I was getting “friend requests” several times a week.  My wife saw one, from a co-worker.  “Who is this girl?” she asked, “do you even know her?”

“Well … sort of, I guess … she works in my office, but I have hardly ever spoken to her.”  (True, by the way).

“Charles,” my wife said, “When a 24-year-old girl asks a middle-aged man to ‘be her friend’, she wants something more.  What’s really going on?”

I had to admit, she had a good point, it was stupid of me to even have that account, and I deleted it immediately.  And I haven’t regretted that decision since.  

And, by the way … no, sorry … I won’t be your “friend” on Facebook.  Or anyone else’s.  Ever.
