 I do have a phone flaterate, it is much less hassle to call the person on

  Holm, my friend, this is one area in which you and I must disagree.  I
hate phone calls.  So disruptive.
  Our opinions on social media are very much the same, though.  I have a
Facebook account, but mainly to find and keep in touch with people who
haven't figured out "real email" yet; mainly old childhood friends.
Overall, my position is that I'm a busy guy, and I will NEVER have
enough free time for Facebook.  It's little other than a huge time sink
for people who don't have anything better to do. :-(
