When you get down to it, really, all of them are nearly identical. Sure, Facebook might have more stupid toys and it's all The Rage(tm) for now, but when something comes to usurp it, you'll be left wondering what purpose Facebook serves in the age of ($facebook++).
Which is why I proudly don't bother with that nonsense and stick to LJ. :-)
lj has a normal notification system and long-term archiving, so even if i'm away for a week i get to see that you have new posts, and read them. not to mention RSS, decent formatting, etc.
facebook is meh - things scroll off the bottom edge of the retrievable newsfeed in a day, and if i forget to log in i'll never even know you were on.
I read it!
