Has anyone ever made a facebook page for their favorite bass? I love my Betty so much I have to admit it has crossed my mind.

Why would you want the government to know all about your basses activity?

I don't have time. Nor would I set aside enough time to dedicate to it. It's like that Facebook for dogs site where dog owners can update status and photos.

It's a product of a culture of excess and not something I want to delve into.

I don't have a facebook account and am not in the least interested in setting one up, be it for me or for one of my basses.

I deactivated my FB account. I got sick of all the BS there.
FB is lame, making an account for your bass will/and is lamer.

Statistics show signing up your bass for a Facebook account will decrease your chances of reproduction by 100%.

It would be a great way to meet other people who have way too much time to kill

FB is a wasteful time killer. Spend the time practicing instead.

Wait, wait..hold the phone. I'm a member of a non-profit org. that has had success with making a private page for members that can NOT be accessed by the general public on FB. We control who has access, and confirm their ID.

FB is not all bad! And, since I'm in charge of that page's security, it is tight, I mean tight!

If someone's bass asked to be my friend, I'd delete him. From the planet.
