are any of you on Facebook, Google +, Twitter, or some other social site or do you just hang out here most of the time? Not trying to add friends to my other site, just curious as to where everyone spends most of their time. Me, I have other site memberships but spend most of my time here because I love reading the golf discussions you all have. Got some interesting and definitely useful tips that really helped my game on here, and really have been thinking about closing some of my other site memberships due to the "privacy" issues they seem to trample on. Thoughts?

BTW I hope everyone has a wonderful off season (for those of you who live in non-year-round golf states since the season ends later this month!

I'm on Facebook, but only have like 5 or 6 friends since I never go on there and let people find me and add me if they want to. This is the only social network I spend time on.

I do twitter more than this one. but more following than commenting. So cancel the others. I did and have never regretted it.

On FB and spend about 50/50 between there and here. Most of my friends on FB are not as overwhelmingly interested in golf as I am. But I do have other interests beyond golf and enjoy re-establishing connections with old friends and making some new ones who are like-minded.

All the above, though I don't have much use for Twitter.

Besides here I'm on LinkedIn for professional networking. My wife uses FB. I prefer not to invest the time in additional social networking sites.

I'm on FB but almost never go there. I started it back a few years ago. I hate it. I keep getting bugged by people to be a "friend." I don't have time for FB or LinkIn. Most of it's all inane chatter just like the teenagers do on their cell phones. On Twitter I follow Natalie Gulbis, Morgan Pressel and Christie PacPherson. Natalie is very active on Twitter. I originally thought I would get a chance to learn what the players think as they prepare for a tournament or what they thought right after a round but pretty much what they Tweet is every little activity they are involved in; things like dinner at Schlotzky's, coffee at Starbucks, etc.

I spend most of my online time here, The Drudge Report or the local news from Albuquerque, New Mexico. On GolfQ, I enjoy the discussions and I like to post replies and topics. I get my national news from Drudge since the major media only provide liberal slanted news that are not the least bit objective. I was born and raised in Albuquerque so I like to follow the news there and I post commentary there regularly.

Schlozky's is the most underrated place to grab a bite to eat in the country. Love their food. Hope to get my first job there.

You're right, it is a very good place to eat. I especially love their pizza. Their bread makes the best sandwiches going.

Not weird at all Ethan. I have a number of student connections although they are all college level I believe. Some good discussion and commentary on LinkedIn and a growing number of golf related groups as well.

Haven't had their pizza in a while. The Original is just awesome. Was in love with their grilled cheese on the kids menu and will still get that if I want something little, but not a lot to eat.
