                  Twitter I have no love for nor instagram or any other video picture posting site beyond photobucket and youtube.

                  Youtube I use for myself for promoting my business and my son who skateboards and inadvertantly gets free stuff and money from it to support his hobby which maybe one day will turn into something.

                  Facebook is the interesting one. Some people live on the darn thing not my cup of tea I got better things to do.

                  However it serves it's purpose in several ways it promotes my business and makes me aware of businesses I may be interested in.
                  It allows me to know in a single hit who is going to what skate jam/park on behalf of my son.
                  It's a method of staying in touch with friends and family for free and seeing their kids grow up as one brother is in canada one in norway and parents in us. Friends in hong kong, gibraltar, dubai, us and canada etc... as I lived in many different countries in my younger years.

                  Most importantly it shows your ex girlfriends that you made it and they didn't - seriously though on a more serious point it's like emails just another form of communication it's upto the individual to choose whether they use it. I'd have to be a member of god knows how many forums to have the information at hand that I do via facebook. So when I need it I go on it, when I don't need it I avoid it.

                    I'm a facebook user, but I like to consider myself not so addicted. Only logging in once in a while, just checking my messages, and my wall, I don't think I spend more than 5 minutes per day as an average.
                    Today I found this clip:



                    And I went to my account and requested the information they have about me. They said that they will send me an email once my archive is ready.

                    I'm so curious to see what they have about me.

                        i am a grumpy old man and can't stand facebook. i can see the benefits eg my wifes old school mate lives in oz so they stay in touch. i also have an account to promote my small business. but i sometimes look at people writing things like john is having a banging s &&t etc and think why?
                        also after 13 years as a police officer i would stand in someones house to take a complaint of harassment. the opening line would be Kylie called me a slag on facebook cos i shagged her boyfriend etc! they must be able to read the look on my face.
                        it encourages pillocks.

                              This what get's up my goat....

                              "Facebook UK paid £238,000 in tax last year, according to its accounts. Its sales were £20.4m. Most of the company's income is believed to be legally going through its European base in Dublin, where corporation tax is lower than in the UK."

                              &

                              "And a report in the Guardian in April said that online retailer Amazon had generated sales of more than £7.6bn in the UK over the past three years but had not paid any corporation tax on the profits from those sales."

                              &

                              "According to the Sunday Times, eBay had sales of £789m during 2010 in the UK at its four British subsidiaries. Using its worldwide profit margin of 23%, it would have made a profit in the UK of £181m, leading to corporation tax owed of £51m.

                              Instead, it paid £1.2m, the report said.

                              Accounts for one of its units, eBay (UK) Ltd, show that for 2010 - the last year available - it owed tax of £766,000 on profits of £4.4m"

                              You try doing this as a small company or a private individual and see how HMRC would treat you....

                                You can blame the lefties for this... "tax the big bad bankers, make the rich pay" etc. They just base themselves offshore where our tax rules don't apply and bypass the problem. Make business more competitive, and they'd come flooding back.
