			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I tried to avoid it.  I held off for quite some time, but finally caved and created a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</a> account.</p>
<p>My life went along swimmingly without ever needing a <a href="http://www.myspace.com/">MySpace</a>  account, and I was hoping the same would hold true with Facebook.  Unfortunately, my annoyance at not being able to see information that people wanted to share with me finally overcame my disdain for keeping up with the latest and greatest social networking site of the day.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.michiganaccent.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/face-the-facts.jpg" title="Facebook"><img src="http://www.michiganaccent.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/face-the-facts.thumbnail.jpg" title="Facebook" alt="Facebook" align="left" /></a>So I now have an account.  I now have one more place I need to check for updates about people.  I  now have another place to keep my own information updated. Alright, maybe it&#8217;s not <em>that</em> bad, but I&#8217;m struggling to see the appeal.  Numerous people have pitched the greatness of Facebook to me, but joining so I could <a href="http://apps.facebook.com/zombies/help.php">pretend to be a zombie</a> never felt like a compelling argument.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll see the beauty of Facebook soon enough, right?   Right?!</p>
