We ditched our land line. It was compulsory to have with an ADSL 
account, but when our internet provider pissed us off one time too many, 
we switched to cable. Since I work at a mobile company and get the phone 
for free, and my wife gets family rates, it wasn't a hard decision to take.

Facebook can be many things, which is what makes it so fascinating. You 
can talk crap about your cat (um...), but you can also keep up with 
product launches that interest you.

The biggest issue that I have with Facebook is that you can't organise 
it along the lines that you like. You can't make a little box with 
product announcements and another one with baby pictures, so everything 
is just one big muddle.

As for privacy, I honestly don't care.
