I know some people who are always checking their facebook acvounts and would even update it every single time. Are you thwe kind of person?
As for me, i am not very sociable in facebook and i do not find it cool to let evrey one in my friends list to know. What i am doing all the time...
Whats your opinion on this?

I don't really have to check my facebook all the time but I check it anyway. I love reading what my friends are up to. And I also want them to know what I'm up to. I know the risks of posting too much so I'm selective of what I post there. As a user, one has to know how to use an social network account responsibly. (:

Hi. chiyosan. No. I may check my notifications at my Yahoo account. I will check to see if anyone has sent me a message, poked me or asked me to be their friend. That is pretty much the only time that I am logged onto Facebook. I like it better this way. I don't like to log into my account on Facebook just to look around at what others are writing. I just get so bored with hearing about other people bragging and making sarcastic remarks and statements. I don't have time for this. I come onto Facebook when I feel like it. I don't tell others what is going on with my personal life either. I feel that they don't need to know everything about me. Many people do this just so that they can gain comments to their posts. I just don't have the time and the eagerness to keep others up to date with my status. They will see me when they see me...![](/Content/images/emotes/glare.gif)

I do check my facebook and orkut daily and see the updates of my friends, their photos and videos. Sometimes i may chat with my friends. I do not post my updates daily, sometimes only i do it. But whenever i am in online, i will be available in gtalk and talk with my friends.

You dont have everyone to know what you are doing, i think its optional i do like face book well the chatting and connecting with old friends that i barely get to see anymore. so i do check facebook when im not so busy and is missing my friend.

I only check it in the morning mostly to see if there are any updates from my friends and relatives then I close it. When I'm bored during the day, I might open it and just browse at my friends' page.

I don't. There are days that passed that i don't log in to my FB account. When i log in, it's only for the purpose of checking my inbox as most of my connections there do not send me emails but instead just sending msgs through FB.

I am a social media marketer and facebook is just one of the top social sites that is why I am often online in facebook to check my account and my fan page. Also I created page where any types of people can communicate to share any ideas about life, love, problems and experiences, for me facebook didn't waste my time since I meet new people from different places and share experiences with them.

I usually log in to facebook once a day and check for news from my friends,and only if I have something interesting to write or a link to share I make updates,so I like facebook,but luckily I'm not at all addicted to it.I understand people who want to share almost everything that happens in their lives with their friends because I believe they are very open people,but I couldn't be like them,I can't be sociable all the time.

I check my facebook everyday to get updates from my friends, what events are happening, whose birthday it is, and so on. However, I don't stay on Facebook the whole day. What I usually do is check it maybe once or twice a day by opening FB and looking at the feed.
I like updating my status although I don't reveal everything I do all the time. Maybe just of the nice things I experience throughout the day but not every little bit of what happens with my day. It's quite fun to share with friends and get to know their activities too. ![](/Content/images/emotes/happy.gif)

I login to my facebook account once a day and it takes me about half and hour to one hour checking notifications and status update. I don't stay they for so long because I won't get anything from it unlike when I'm working online. I just take a look if there pictures tagged to me or anything new about my friends.

I must confess that I am quite addicted to facebook. I don't know why but up until now, I still love to play some games when I have nothing else to do. Also, love that I stay connected to people dear to me even if they're a few miles away from me. It's great to keep updated. This is just my own opinion. But when it comes to updating status, I don't do it every day. I just update it when I like it. That's it.

This is a growing issue today. Letting everyone know your every move. I think the most overlooked fact about the facebook revolution is the security risks it poses to the average dude. its not wise to constantly broadcast yourself
