How often do you update your facebook status?

I don't really update it that much anymore since you can't see it at the top portion of your profile anymore. Last year, when I got the list of my status posts, I think it was about twenty pages long. It's probably gonna be much shorter this year. So how about you?

It does get pretty boring at times. Sometimes I can go for days without facebook. But when there are activities with other friends that I have to check up on then I do it a lot.

It was a bit strange that they decided to have your previous status update be carried down along the other activities that happen in your network. Then again, there must be a reason. I don't get to change my status that much in that social networking site. I only get to post a new status when I really do have something post which I want others to know about. I guess nothing much happens in my routine to have me posting one status after another (^_^")

I guess we'll never now what that reason is.

I only update once in a while, and often find something pithy from Status Shuffle to post. I detest people who put up nonsense every few minutes--I don't need to know what they're doing every minute, or eating, or playing on their iPod!!! One friend in particular is guilty of that, and I've tried to tell her that guys don't find that interesting but she's doing it again. Oh well.

I'll just hide her as I have with many others. :)

All I can say is let her be. :) If your friend posts that's way, then it's her prerogative, just like it's yours to put up stuff from Status Shuffle, right? :)

I used to do that too. Update when I'm sad and when my friends comment back, it makes me feel somehow that I am not alone.

I don't really know actually. I just update my update my status when I feel like it. I usually don't have anything to write so I just end up writing some funny lines from TV shows or from somewhere I heard

That's what I do too. Sometimes there are days when I would write lines from my favorite songs or whichever song that I'm listening too. I also like commenting on friends' posts with music, tv or movie lines.

I never do that. I don't really see the point of it. I guess that's just because I'm a shallow person though. :)

On the contrary, you're not shallow enough to do it :)

Hi. allamgirl. I don't update my Facebook status as often. To be honest with you, I am not sure on how I do this. I do know about writing a post or asking a question that I feel like asking. I may do this when I feel like it though.

I am not into Facebook that much this day. So I really dont care about my status and dont even bothered to update it always. Anyways the status I have when I first time have my facebook is also the status I have right now. Duhh there is no much changes in my life so why would I bother to change it a lot. Anyways I also dont want that all my friends will know what is my status. I am not really that showy of things what is going on with my life. Even if I am joining this social networking, I still intent to have my own privacy. That is why I am keeping my profile low as much as possible.

I did never use facebook for status updates until the last few months. I do not update regularly but do promote my links of articles once in a while just for getting traffic or referrals. I was never interested in posting updates on facebooks as it sounds childish to write everything there :P. But I do comment on other people's update and never leave an opportunity to pass humorous comments just to pull legs of my friends who post silly updates. But I do think that facebook is a good medium to get referrals and traffic if you have a big list of friends, especially the one's who are interested in earning money.

You're right it's fun to put in witty remarks on other people's comments. I myself, don't have a lot of friends who are interested on making money online so I don't really use facebook for referrals. I tried but it didn't work out well for me so kudos to you! :)

Sometimes when I feel like I'm doing something interesting, that's what I put up too. But I don;t do it all the time. I don't have a twitter account so I don't really get it.

Not so much. I use facebook when I have to talk to some of my relatives and best friends whom I didn't meet for a long time. I love to see their pictures there and what they are up to. It's a way of showing them that I miss them and I want to see them everyday.

That's nice. If there's one really good thing about facebook is that it brings people closer. It's nice when you find long lost friends or family members that you haven't heard from in a while.

i only updates my status when i feel necessary.... when i have time to kill... but sometimes when i stress... i make a joke with bullying my friend there... its fun sometimes... maybe i update my status 5 - 10 times a month..

I guess we post in similar ways but I do update more than you do. I like posting witty stuff or songs that I'm listening to at the moment.

I do updating it not that much anymore compared last year. If yours was 20 pages, mine was about 35 pages. I found my fingers inputting updates when i feel so excited about something and that's where I let everything out. But this time I have another outlet, the myLot and the good thing is I am actually earning from it. :)

That's good. At least mylot is beneficial, right? I update more this days though but I only update on my phone. I barely do mylot anymore because I don;t have much time this days and you can't mylot over the phone. I hope they come up with a mylot application for phones!

I am addicted to Frontierville and Paradise Life. Thats the only reason I log on more than once a day. It's horrible, I know. So I don't update my status very often. Probably about once a week.

I don;t really play that much anymore on facebook. But I once got addicted to Baking life and Night Club City. Everyday before and after I go to work I would log on to play. I barely got any sleep. I stopped as soon as I realized that it's taking over my time. :) These days, I only play Coin Dozer and Pictino which doesn't require too much time.

It depends on my activity. I created a fan page and a group for something that I conduct as part of my training programs. So most often, I update my facebook account almost everyday to keep everyone informed.

I can't even remember when was the last time I updated my facebook account, although I get notifications of what's happening. I guess I'm one of those hundred of people getting tired of facebook. I'd rather spend my time here at least there's always something to think about and respond to everyday.

I guess so. I got way behind on mylot though. So now, I'm trying to catch up. It's a good way of passing time. Plus, you actually earn money.

That was last year though. :) I got hooked on mylot for a while too. But i got so busy these days that I haven't checked up on it. I'm using my free time right now to comment back on everyone though.

That's alright. It's hard when you get addicted to it. I once became a little bit like that because I played games on it. But these days, I just do it to communicate with my friends.

I never update it, neither do I ever really go on facebook. I think the whole thing is stupid because you can just contact your friends through email or chat or in real life. I don't find telling people what you are doing or what you are thinking enjoyable or being able to bring joy to others. It merely informs them and they might just press a Like button to respond to it or leave a short comment. The only thing I find useful about facebook is the photo system, but then again I don't exactly take that many photos, so that doesn't really matter to me either.

I guess you really are not into facebook. That's alright, to each his own and all that. I actually used to prefer storing my photos on Multiply but it's gotten easier on facebook.
