About Us


Whether we like it or not we are going to feel the effects of technological changes. Our younger generation would feel the effects more so than us as their lives are much more intertwined in online social network  for variety of reasons.

Take the time to watch today’s video from one of our younger generation and his prospective on how they perceive “Social Network”.

Online Social Networking sites like Facebook have grown exponentially. While many are eager to jump on the band wagon, few have come to realize and question the proportionate growth in the number of issues and concerns arising out of obsessive use of Social Network. Avoidfacebook blog site provides an online platform for users to raise, discuss and solve the increased concern around the use of Social Networking groups like Facebook. Bloggers can blog and raise genuine concerns around the growing use of Social Network without the fear of repercussions.

Avoidfacebook is more than just a website it is a community of socially responsible citizens of the free world, dedicated to protecting their loved ones, friends and colleagues by promoting safe and responsible use of online Social Network.

The site will help parents recognize and deal with most common online Social Network threats.   It will help authorities identify and prevent Social Network related crimes.   Most importantly it will help kids and teenagers deal with the pressures of online Social Network.

Our commitment is to keep the website updated with the latest news and information about the Social Network development – both the good and especially the bad of it!  We will bring forth all the issues, concerns and threats that the Social Network users are facing globally, so that you are not just informed but also prepared, with ample ways of dealing with these situations should this happen to you.

Our community website exists to protect our children and to make sure they know and practice safe surfing on online Social Network sites.

I’m the founder-volunteer of AvoidFacebook.com
I started this Endeavour because I had to address Facebook Addiction in my own family. Rather than having a discussion about Facebook Addiction I thought of creating a website so that my family can see my point of view.

The website has become much more than I envisioned and it has grown beyond my own expectation. Today I hope this website would help and engage you to find the right answer to Facebook addiction, issues and concerns that we know all about. I also hope to make a difference in families and communities the world around.

In the world of social network, the corporations believe that responsibility for addressing issues and concerns that rise out of usage of social network  rests on the hands of the users.  At AvoidFacebook we believe it is just as much our responsibility as it is yours.  For what is a community; if not a group of socially aware and intellect people coming together to solve problems and proactively act against threats!!?

We thrive on support from people like you.   Join the community, of the more aware and the smarter audience and get your social network questions answered, discuss your concerns and provide guidance to others within the community.

Together we can and we will make a difference!
