Do you guys use Facebook?

Tue Sep 05, 2006 3:03 pm

Do you guys use http://www.facebook.com ? It's a no spam version of myspace created for people from HS, College, Uni or alumuni and they will only let you register if you're from one of those instutitons (u need an email from that school).

It's cool. I registered, and found all my friends from yonder years I lost contact with!

Great - I'm already getting kicked out for being too old... I'm only 22! I can't find the folk from my old high school then.

doesn't your school let you keep your emails? I know mine does...

for example.. if you graduate from uni... they let you keep your uni address.

Most schools kick you off your email in July (assuming you were done in mid-May), whether your graduated or left or whatever the case may have been. FaceBook didn't offer their service for my school, so I'm not sure how keeping the account would work.

bah, I got tooo old to register too.

Yep. I still have my account. :)

I use it, and I like it much better than MySpace... or at least, I used to. I logged on today and found all sorts of new features that will make it easier than ever for people to stalk you. Fortunately, you can take it off of your profile so people won't know exactly what you've been up to.

See, I'm kinda glad I don't have a facebook.... I really don't want any of my old "friends" from high school looking for me, and as for MySpace.... too many weirdos roam around on there for me to deal with. I've tried it, the weirdos found me, I deleted my account.

(I love it when women obsessed with my boyfriend from middle school message me with threats!)

I'll stick with my lovely LiveJournal. ;)

Yes, I do. I love Facebook, it's 100 times better than MySpace in my opinion, mainly because there's a lot more privacy settings, and you HAVE to have a school/work e-mail to be in the network.

And I like the new feature they added today with the feed. Very convenient.

I added you. :)

o.O That's odd... One of the groups I was a member of didn't have an admin anymore, so I clicked 'Become an Admin' and I was immediately added. That's weird.

Yeah, and you can't hide it from your profile page. So much for the whole "Facebook is more private than MySpace" argument. <_<

Ooh, we could maybe start a group for PPT on there. :P
