Social networking sites - do we share too much information?

I'll never Twitter. Period. All I do is think of that douchebag Ashton Kutcher when I think of Twitter. Every 15 minute celebrity uses it.

I have a FB but no personal info is there except for my name. I only have it for people to contact me and they can only do so through the messaging as I turned off the ability to post on my wall. I only have one picture of myself, just to show the account is real.

I'm seriously considering doing the same thing. It's infuriating to clean up all the spam from all the stupid apps that get posted on my wall. I might also restrict all access to my pictures too, and just leave my profile pic up so people recognize me.

I joined Facebook 3 weeks ago only because that was the only way to get more info on the band Living Colour. Other than that I can't stand ANY of the social networks.

Why don't you just block the apps?
