I change my facebook status omce every couple of days and enjoy the odd cryptic reference in my status to see if my friends are paying attention but also lately I may do a brief family or news update and have also talked a lot about new developments in th health care debate. What about you?

I used to change my Facebook status about once a day . . . but lately I've been doing it every couple days (even though I still frequent Facebook all day, everyday). I've posted all kinds of miscellaneous things, but most of the time they are about my funny 4 year old. I used to post two of my favorite You Tube music video links per day too . . . more for my enjoyment. Sometimes I'll post a new photo album . . . and that becomes my status "report" for a couple days. Lately I've not been wanting everyone to know my entire business, so I've been keeping it low key. Gasp, am I outgrowing Facebook? (ahhhh, highly doubtful! :P )

not at all- we've all been there/are there. I know exactly what you man and those are pretty much my habits too. The thing for me is I live in US and have a lot of family in UK as does my wife and many now are on facebook so its a great tool for sharing stuff like that (personal photos and such) but as I think about it, I have a lot of 'fb friends' who are total strangers around the world I never talk to and of course all these people get to see this stuff too - I'm not sure how I feel about that yet

I like to do the cryptic message thing, too, for my statuses. I usually will do a song lyric that describes the way I'm feeling or a funny phrase from something that happened to me that day (usually 1 or 2 of my friends understand it - it's like an inside joke thing). I try hard, though, not to be the type of person to sit there and update his/her status 5 times a day. This is incredibly annoying to me! And I try to make them thoughtful, instead of what a lot of people do..Such as writing [so and so] "..is at school" or "...is going to work" and the like.
