<p>Q:I just spent one whole hour dancing around facebook.com. I tried to edit my profile, the help function, etc. I cannot seem to be able to unsubscribe from Facebook. If there is a way to unsubscribe, please let me know. Facebook is the biggest waste of time ever invented. It provides more useless information than anybody wants or needs to know.</p><p>Dorli Rainey</p><p>A: The simplest thing is to deactivate your account. Your profile will still be on the Facebook servers, but it won't be accessible by anyone unless you reactivate it.</p><p>To deactivate your account, click on the gear symbol in the upper-right corner, then select Account Settings and then Security. You'll see an option at the bottom that says "Deactivate your account." Follow the directions, and you'll be done with it. The only trace of you that will still be in the Facebook world are things you have sent to others.</p><p><a href="http://seattletimes.com/html/businesstechnology/2020369466_ptechqa16xml.html">Keep reading...</a></p>
