I had some extra server space after a side project a few years ago and offered to set up Wordpress blogs for my mom and a few friends. Most of them were basically never used. My mom kept up near weekly posts for a year and a half or so, but it's been several years since her last post. I bet I could delete them all right now and it would be next Thanksgiving before they noticed.

But, they're always asking why I'm not on FB.

Because there's no social confirmation for their posts. They have no idea if people read them or liked them.
