This is completely stupid. If you have real friends and aren't a freshman cruising for parties, Facebook is not required at all. Many of mine do not have an account. It's a gigantic waste of time with no benefits. If you keep this burden because you fear being saw as an “non-conformist”, *you* are the mindless autist bullied in high school.

it's for keeping in touch with friends and family across the globe.

it's for being able to know what other people are up to without actually talking to them all the time, which is so convenient.

it's for sharing your interests with other people and is a tool of expression.

it's for artists looking to promote themselves.

if i was the boss of a company and saw that some guy wanting to be hired didn't have a facebook, i would turn him down on the spot.
