I'm on FB and I like that I can see what friends are doing and saying - no matter how mundane. I stay away from apps and most gifts. To me, the apps are nothing more than cheap games and info grabbers for third parties. Tests and surveys are so poorly written that they mean absolutely nothing. I've readjusted my profile to limit who sees my info, especially audio-video. This way I'm not bothered by strangers looking for "friends".
