Me;

Piczo
Created: 2006
Deleted: 2007
I was only about 10 when I signed up cos my friend introduced me to it. Piczo was the the first ever social network I used. It was so bleeding fun cos everyone at school competed to see who designed the best website. I didn't actually delete my Piczo. I asked my friend to make my Piczo website amazing for me because he was really good at designing, so I gave him my password. Then as a prank he changed it, and he forgot what he changed it to. Now I can never go back on it :bawling:

Bebo
Created: 2008
Deleted: 2009
Bebo was probably the most fun out of any social network I went on. I would love to have kept it but all of my friends ended up deleting theirs so I had no choice :(

Facebook
Created: 2008
Deleted: 2008
When I made it, not many people I knew had Facebook, so I deactivated it. But now everyone has it. But I cba to go back on it cuz people don't use it much and they tell me its sh!t nowadays.

Twitter
Created: 2011
Deleted: I still have it
Not many of my friends have Twitter, so I don't know why I find it so addictive. But I just love talking I guess.

Your turn.

Myspace - I joined this in like 2008. I stopped using it a few weeks after because there like 8 people on there. I still have my account, but I haven't logged in for like 2 years LOL.

Facebook - I've had this since 2007, but I never used it properly until 2009, which was when I got addicted to it. In 2010 I started getting bored, which progressed to hating half of my fiends list in 2011. I just post things that I hope will get likes on there now.

Twitter - I got this in like January 2009. I stopped using it because I thought it was boring then at the end of the year, the bloody website exploded with people from school. I try to use it, but I still find it so ****ing dull.

Tumblr - I signed up for Tumblr in December 2010 to have a source for gifs. I didn't understand the website so I stopped using it. Then I started talking to (my now best friend) Rowanne at school, and she pretty much explained Tumblr to me. I started following some people and I was hooked. Its the only social network where I will post every day without fail. Its the only place where I feel like I can really voice my feelings too. Barely any of my irl friends have Tumblr either, so it's a safe place for me to bitch about them too. I just love Tumblr OKAY.

Piczo was incredible! You could create amazing websites and add friends etc.

It's gone kinda crap now though
It's peak was during the MySpace years

Urgh, Pinterest looks snobby

Instead of 'sign up', it says "Request an Invite"
And the rules section is called 'Pin Etiquette'

I mean WTF

Created: 2005
Deleted: 2005

It was dull as ******.

Bebo

Created: 2006
Deleted: Still there.

I'm like you - loved Bebo, then everyone left it when it begun changing into something it couldn't be.
But I don't get these idiots who went and deleted their profiles? Just don't go on it anymore.

YouTube

First Account 2006 - 2009
Second Account 2010 - now

I was a pretty big deal back in the day on YouTube, had thousands of subscribers and stuff but the bastards had to delete my account for FA.

Facebook

Created: 2008 - now.

Only joined because everyone else did, and now it's like an essential part of life.

Twitter

Created: 2009 - now.

I joined it to follow Big Brother Housemates, other than that - it's over rated and dull.

Tumblr

Created: 2012 - now.

Love it.

Myspace for a couple of weeks in 2005. Got bored. Nothing since. Quite proud of that. I find most of it dull, boring and self obsessed drivel. Especially twitter and facebook. I don't care about your last bowel movement or if you had a bad day at work, I've got my own problems without dwelling on other peoples.

Don't get me wrong, facebook is a fantastic tool for catching up with old friends in other countries and sending pictures and messages to relatives who live a long way away but 99.9% of users use it for the most pointless and idiotic things.

Joined Myspace first in 2005, then Bebo in late 2005. Facebook in summer 2007 and Tumblr late in 2010, I think.

YouTube 2007 - Present, My account although not in great standing is still here. I do not upload any videos anymore but my channel has almost 7 million video views and over 900 subscribers. One of my videos has over a million views!

Bebo - 1 week in 2009, somebody on here made me join it and I quickly lost interest.

Facebook - August 2011 - Present, I was missing my school friends and desperately wanting to keep in touch with them.

Twitter - August 2011 - Present, I joined on the night of Derek Gibbons LUV and have never looked back. My fave social network site.

Tumblr 2011, I loved it at first but partly because my laptop hates that site, I rarely use it. I get most of my gifs from other sources now.
