Facebook here to stay?

I'll admit it: At times I've wavered during the "to Facebook, or not to Facebook" debate. Sometimes it seems inevitable as I receive those little emails telling me that yet another person I know has hopped on the bandwagon. Yet, the thought of potential employers finding me and deciding that my content is unfavorable, is extremely unappealing.

Do I owe it to my chosen profession to join the ranks of Facebook? According to the Toronto Star, "Facebook is here to stay." Perhaps the real question is, can I squeeze another 2 hours out of the day to spend online? Probably not. So, for now, I will continue to avoid Facebook until a more persuasive argument than "everyone is doing it" comes along.
