How to leave facebook

Certainly, a good read, even if it doesn't inspire me to leave fb yet.  http://goo.gl/uQZEK
One paragraph there reads almost word for word as one of the reasons why we develop osom.me :

Those with whom your connection is so limited aren't really your friends, or aren't very close ones at any rate.  One of the lessons I was taught growing up, and its wisdom grows in me by the day, is in life you are lucky, lucky, to have four or five true lifelong friends.  The rest will come and go throughout your life, and you will survive.

And I decided to stop visiting fb newsfeed from now on. This should leave me "find-able"  to old pals if they ever look for me, as well as keep fresh contact data for my phonebook.

Using osom.me via sms, #commands

To post status update 
Any sms to osom.me that doesn't begin with #, is treated as post, e.g. Just woke up, hungry, sleepy, happy! will be posted on your timeline for friends to see. Any command begins with #, e.g. #help

To invite/accept friends
To sucessfully use osom.me you need only 3 commands: #invite, #yes, #no
#INVITE NAME NUMBER - invite new friend
#YES - accept latest invite
#YES NUMBER - accept invite from NUMBER
#NO NUMBER - decline or cancel invite, or remove confirmed friend
Here NAME is a nick you give to your friend, max 12 latin chars, beginning with letter, symbols not allowed, visible to friend. NUMBER is international notation without "+" e.g. in LV it is 3712xxxxxxx


Examples

• you get first invite - reply to osom.me #yes to accept it. 
• you want to invite John to be your friend - reply to osom.me #invite John 3712*******
• you decide to cancel invitation to/from John - reply to osom.me #no 3712*******
• you received 2 invites: from Jack (37121111111) and from Ann (37122222222). You want to accept Ann, but ignore Jack. reply to osom.me #yes 37122222222
• if you just received just one invite, or you received several invites but want to accept the latest one - reply to osom.me #yes without any number.

Direct messaging
To send private messages to a friend begin message with @username , e.g.
@john private message visible only to you and John

Other useful commands, but no need to memorize them
#HELP
#LISTFRIENDS - list confirmed friends
#LISTINVITES - list any invite sent or received by you
#NAME NEWNAME - change own nick
#RENAME OLDNAME NEWNAME - rename friend, visible only to you
#REG - generate new password for web access
#SILENCE [x] - silence sms notificatons [for x hours]. If you ever send any sms to the service, notifications will resume again
#QUIT

Using osom.me in browser

Once you replied #yes to invite, we send you password. Now, go to beta.osom.me and login with your mobile phone number with country code, but without plus. For Latvia, this is 3712xxxxxxx. Use password from sms.

If you ever forget password, send #reg to osom.me mobile number to generate new password.
