So my struggle of which social media venue to devote time is this...Facebook or Blogging.
I've thoroughly enjoyed my blogging years, but FB seems to be where more people are and it's just easier to communicate little thoughts about life, etc.
Blogging provides opportunity for more in depth thoughts, stories, and rants. I really enjoy looking back three years ago to see "where I was" in life, even with pics.
On the flip side Facebook has opened the door to reconnection with so many friends and family. In the past year I've communicated more with friends I graduated with in high school...connected with family members that I typically see at funerals.
Hmmmm...I'm a torn. Do I continue blogging? If you follow my blog you know that I can go in spurts of drought from time to time. What do you think?

Ummm...I know the struggle. :o) I have opted for the blog! My notes are more for our children (the day-to-day tidbits) and whoever else chooses to read it. I do the book thing every 2 years also. Good luck in your decision!!
I know what you mean - I use both as well.
I look at my blog as an online scrapbook/journal of sorts - more personal, not quite as public(at least people have to search a little more for it), the ability to have longer posts and I can even print it into a book if I chose to do so.
I look at facebook as just what you said - a way to keep up with family, friends and events, post funny quips, share pictures and see others pictures....but more so to keep up with my social side than to share deeper thoughts and feelings on things.
I will probably continue to use both. My motto: Why do I have to choose? :)
