Face it.
Well I guess it was time for me to face it.  Over the past year or so I've received a number of "invites" for this thing called "Facebook."  Now as far as I could tell this was yet another one of these stupid friends networks or birthday calenders that just took your e-mail, sold them to 100,000 different companies and then I get e-mails trying to sell me everything from breast implants to how-to guides to make my own beef jerky.  No thanks.  But I have been hearing more and more about this facebook program and how great it is and so just for fun I decided to check it out.  Holy cow.  So as it turns out everyone I have ever met just so happens to be on facebook.  Lots of my family, my youth group, everyone I went to high school with.  You are most likely on facebook.  Its unbelievable.  And so many people have SO much information about themselves on there (which can be a little dangerous) but it is insane just how many "friends" I have on my list in only one day.  I joined yesterday and I have 80 friends this morning.  We'll see how many "friends" I really have when I move and ask them to help me!  But all in all I have to admit that this facebook thing that I made fun off and adamantly protested is actually pretty neat.  It even lists how I know people.  Which I still don't know how to do... can someone tell me please?  ugg.

Much too confusing for me! I think I'm a computer genius since you set me up on blogger. Moves way too fast for 32, um I mean 29 year olds!
when you go to your friends list you just click "how so you know..so&so".. then theres choices you can choose!
.....unless....you were kidding!
It is a Cult Ben!... get away from it... I signed up just so people would leave me alone. Agh! Down with Facebook. (Those with Facebook, please don't hurt me)
Facebook Addicts
My name is Katherine,
and I have a problem.
It'll say "edit details" under Friend Details as to how you met that person, click on that and request confirmation. I'm sad to say, Back in February I was so lost...but now I can pretty much get around the site with my eyes closed =/
I usually just press random things and hope i get somewhere. It's like exploring
Media over load. I looked at Face Book when I first considered setting up My Fist & Second Blog. It really seemed more than I could process.
This from the AH-HEM Oldest person to post a comment so far.
I'm showing may age.
I have three separate things that do the same thing... I'm sad. But Facebook is pretty sweet, I've reconnected with many of my old friends there... good stuff! and Darrell I will hunt you o.O
i was doubtful on it as well.. just another social network... but this one's really picking up steam in canada.
