So, I have been using facebook for my non-music-related business since 2011. Basically just to spam my stuff. That has been working somewhat ok, even well for some time. Nowadays, not so much any more. For music related things I set up an extra account. However, I mostly get swamped with banalities there. So, since many artists/labels/producers nowaday don't even bother to have a website of their own they go straight to FB, they don't happen to have a "proper" E-Mail address either any longer. So I contact them, ask them stuff, as a fan etc. Only a minority even cares to answer stuff there. Nothing much "social" about social media if ya ask me.

I do the same thing if i am looking for a job myself, immediately google any info on any back stories, etc. everybody does it right? still facebook free here. +ToRMeNT+ Wrote:I googled the name & their twitter account came up of a person who DID have the work experience i was looking for. what i gathered from their public twitter feed is how much & how often they got drunk, how much they tweeted while drunk, how much they were an emotional drunk LOL, and how much they hated their current situations. not so wise to have that up on the internet huh? i thought it was funny. people don't even realize sometimes what is out there.

Now, using this music-relating FB account for a few months now. Some more things I noticed. I am now "friends" with several peeps who posted here in the past and now are on FB. But they don't seem to post much stuff there either, any more. If they do, it's mostly spam (more power to them tho, they want their work get noticed). Regardless, my "feeds" appear so random, it's pretty much useless to get much information from using FB.
