awww..well, you can always make a new poll on a different subject..lol.. :) Anyhoo, to answer your question, the only social media I use is CC.. I used Yahoo messenger until they closed their chat rooms, and I used Gr8 Chats and GlobeScene messenger for awhile... Both those accounts are closed now..

I don't have Skype, Twitter, or Fake Book..lol.. :)

Because of 1John 2:15-16 I tend to make CC the only social media outlet for me.

I had a skype account long ago... probably still do, but I never talked to anyone on it when I had it, just tested it out to see how it worked. Never had Facebook. For a few years I was a moderator in an apostolic chatroom, but it is gone now (may it rust in peace.) Then I migrated to another christian chat site which shall remain nameless, but I left when the owner fell in love with a transsexual wiccan and began openly advocating um... other viewpoints, let's say. Which brings me here... the CC forum and occasionally the chatroom.

CC, a few comic strips I keep as bookmarks, and some online news sites. That's about all.

Oh yeah, I do have Myspace though. It's this room I spend most of my time in with three or four laptops, an 88-key MIDI keyboard, an Altec Lansing mega-speaker, two external hard drives, more flash drives than I can count, a turntable, stacks of records, cassettes and CDs, a bunch of other audio and computer stuff... it's MY space. :D

Social?

CC (this site, although I have seen several of my dearest "friends" have felt DISAPPOINTED for not having found the fellowship they expented: I will not mention names.

I seldom use G+. I can be found there, but I realized those "social" sites are meager to know the real person we say we are, so I rather keep my CC account for letting me know who you are (in plural). Yet admiting WE CAN BE BETTER FRIENDS, brothers and sisters.

Back in the day, I began with Myspace. Then, several years after they began, I discovered Facebook and YouTube. I joined up with Twitter just over a year ago, but I rarely use it.

Over the years, I regularly visited and have been a member of many different discussion forums. The main ones were Christian Anime Alliance (not a Christian sect but Christ followers who enjoy anime, manga, God and life in general), TheologyWeb (much of that place went over my head) and a discussion forum called NarniaWeb. But my main digs for just over 1.5 years has been Christian Chat.

My very favorite was My Family which was our family site to chat, post pictures, recipes, stories addresses, I loved it because it was a safe place with just the family. They then migrated to Face Book which I am not a big fan of but to keep in touch with my family I go there on occasion... not crazy about the wide open just about anybody can know your business part.... CC is my first real interactive site that I enjoy almost as much as I did the family site.

Who knows I might have met a new family member here....we will just have to wait and see....you know who you are...smiles and runs.

I've got a matched pair of 1200 MKII's. Sadly, they're in "dry dock" at my mom's...until the kids are old enough to be trusted around such things... my son has poor impulse control and would probably shred the needles the first time I turned my back. In the middle I've got a simple numark, but sometimes still prefer the worn out old pyramid I started with (yeah, I know...). When I dry docked all that, I boxed up the wax, and sold off the Alesis amps and no name cabinets full of subs and such. Things were more analog back then, but even then I was old school. I've also got a drum machine from the early days of MIDI. The same model used on, "When Doves Cry." I also have some Vintage keys - Rhodes Electric Piano (A 73, the one with the amp, not the screw on legs) and a beastly heavy Yamaha electric piano from the early days of Solid State. It takes two sturdy chaps to lug. Music got put on hold for being serious about being a dad. I hope to get back to it someday, but it may never come. Long story short, I think your space could possibly peacefully coexist with some past incarnation of my space.

I am a moderately social person. I used to be active on Facebook. I have an active Linkedin account. Apart from that, my other hang out places are YouTube and CC.

Oooh that's nice! I have two guitars, a Zoom GFX8 processor and an old speaker. When I want to jam I head over to my friend's house-cum-garage where there are about 20 guitars, 5 bass guitars, a Mesa Boogie Guitar Amplifier kit, 1 YAMAHA electric piano, 1 8-channel mixer, 1 synthesizer and a Roland electronic Drum Kit. It is like heaven on earth. :D

Good!

You reminded me Yahoo 360º. It was sad, for me, when they ended it up. :(

When you said "drum kit" I cringed... but Roland has some decent sample packs for their kit. Most drum kits are straight from the 808 days and make my ears turn inside out with their fakeness. (Is fakeness a word? Well it is now.) But Roland isn't so bad.

​So if you have MY space, do I have YOUR space? lol jk.. :)
No, I have always had my space. You have your space.

Just like I am here and you are there. And even if you were standing two feet away you'd still be there. I'm the only one here who is here... but then that's neither here nor there.

Not many and not often. I am a facebook lurker, rarely post unless I find something really funny or informative that would be relevant to others. I don't post selfies or what I ate that day unless it was rare (except for when I ate haggis but that's another story), and any mundane detail of my daily life. I don't play games or post endless quiz results..Since many others do, I got sick of it and go on less often. I sometimes share the verse of the day.
I like twitter, I have fewer personal connections but I use it to see what's happening in my city mostly. Often I forget to check and then I get hopelessly behind the feed.
I have G+ but never go on it. I have instagram but I don't post that much and usually forget to go on it.
Hm, that's it I think. I prefer to just text my friends or google hangout so that is my social networking.

We, as a society, might have one or two too many avenues of communication these days...
