I quit Facebook

Anyone else? It was fun for a while but ultimately the people I am really close to are the ones I actually see and talk to regularly IRL, and I don't need Facebook to stay connected to them.

I went from XP to 7 on the Windows box. Kinda wish I hadn't but I don't want to spend half the day going back. Will be sticking with Precise for the foreseeable future, I just can't seem to break it or slow it down.

Hope you are enjoying your day!

I'm posting this for my friend in the hopes that I can find advice for him. His account has been used by someone else to make a purchase and during the process the other person apparently sent threatening messages to the seller.
