To each his own I guess. Never got into social media either; my life is
definately not interesting enough to share with countless strangers.

My only experience with IRC was at this girl's place a long time ago where she
emancipated herself from her parents. She ended up renting a huge house with
no posessions... except for a bed, a dining room table, and a Technics stereo
system hooked up to a PC that was downloading things called "MP3's" from
various channels she was on. Thats all she did, day and night. MP3's on IRC.

I miss MSN messenger but every time I signed on, constant "do do DO!" alerts
drove me nuts. I had a huge list of MSN contacts that there was *always* a 
round of convo to be had the moment it loaded up. Eventually it all died...
