ok so who's on it.

i put this in this section cuz facebook goes by schools and stuff like that.
michellerrific
Ooh. I have Facebook, but not a lot of people I know have it so i don't use it much.

By the way, there's already a couple topics about Facebook in The Lounge, so maybe someone could merge this?
suddenly she
I have it.
Let's go friend makinggg






...babies.
Detective
I have one. But not that many people know about it yet. Speaking of it, i need to go check it.
voguelove
yea, i have it. everyone has one at our school.
SimplicityGirl
I do but its not like I do much with it.
Mulder
my life is pretty much run by facebook.
jaeminnie
Yeah, I've got one. It's fun when I'm really bored, but otherwise I don't think I'll ever become addicted to it like I was to Xanga for a while.
WHIMSICAL 0NE
Yeah, there's already topics on this.

I don't have one. I don't understand why they're such a big deal. The thing that would bug me is that you can't customize it. I think the friend ticker thing or whatever it is, is stupid idea.
xniksz
i have one and so does everyone else in my school (they got scared of the whole 'myspace predators' stuff and moved to facebook). but personally i like myspace and xanga better hehe. i basically have it -facebook- just to keep in touch with schoolfriends, some of my friends from old schools, and friends from other places not from schools.

Friend ticker?

I actually like that Facebook isn't customizable. The layout is nice and clean, and that way people can't go and make ugly layouts with blinding neon colors and horrible music that make your browser lag. There are enough of those on MySpace. >.<

^ I agree. I love that about Facebook...add the fact that it's completely low maintenance. Never have to worry about coding or layout designing.

Also, Facebook's less superficial than Myspace, I find that people have friends that they actually know, not friends for the sake of having them.

Facebook has pretty much been consuming all my time...it's alright though. I call it "instant messaging without the pressure". I'm usually not very eloquent when it comes to instant messaging (problem being the "instant" part of it), I never have time to think about my replies. Which is why I like forums (such as cB), but Facebook too. You're not forced to reply, yet you're able to carry on with a conversation easily.

I love the "poking" thing on Facebook. Completely pointless, but it's cute.

I used to not spend so much time on FB, but ever since I got accepted to my college, I joined the network and I've gotten to know so many people I'll be going to school with next year. My facebook time quadrupled. It's great.

Actually, it does have a purpose. I used to think it was just for fun but one day I discovered that there's actually a point to it: when you poke someone you're not friends with (who has a private profile), you can see their profile info for a week.
sprezzatura
^Does that mean the person would know I poked him and he would know that I can see his profile?
Smoogrish
Really? I never knew that.. blink.gif

Azarel
Facebook is for college kids. >_>

Sigh. Damn publicizing it. D:

Yeah, so um. I refuse to add people in high school because they're not good enough.

That's cute. I've always thought it was just there for amusement. laugh.gif

Yes, I have one. Glad I joined since I've made many many friends from my university and have gotten to know a few of them well. :)
alysaphobia

I have a Facebook and I find it so much more convenient/efficient than Myspace. I love it! _smile.gif
I can keep in touch with my senior friends going off to colleges... so it's good.
mona lisa
New organization! I like the change!
lostgrl16
i have myspace.. and xanga.. and facebook lol. although i dont check any of them until i get some alert email from it. aim and my phone is what i use most to communicate
z3nn1
I got bullied into joining Facebook.. I don't like it.. rather stick to one thing then create many accounts on various sites to do the same job.. plus I keep forgetting emails and passwords.. so its good to stick to one.

My Facebook is dead though, not added any of my friends.. can't be bothered with it.

It depends if the person knew about poking's purpose. If not, they'd just think, "Wtf, why is this random person poking me? >.>"

Yeah, I do too. At first I didn't like it, but it's growing on me. I'm in the Facebook Sneak Preview group so I knew what it'd look like, but I dearly hope they won't allow different color schemes for profiles. There's a photo of a bright pink profile that's rather blinding. pinch.gif
blucheri
ok well since all u people have facebook. ADD ME

lol

& i just joined the createblog group. cool.gif
Just_Dream
Yea I got one of those things. I'm really slow with it, since I'm not one of those people that check it every day. wink.gif Yea I think the majority of the people know about mines, since I mainly float around Myspace or Facebook. Wow I didn't know about the poking thing. :P

Facebook is easier in the sense that if I put in a person's name, it will actually give me the name. Myspace searches SUCKKKK. yawn.gif
misoshiru
Whhattt? Christina, don't I have you on facebook? and haven't I had you as a friend on facebook since...last fall?
Soleil
Once I graduated from Highschool I converted to facebook (from myspace). All my Uni friends have it, it's easy, and Im addicted to it.

Yan-lin, WHEN DID YOU CHANGE YOUR USERNAME?! lol :P lol you dork. <3
stephinika
I am sooo addicted to facebook. It's kind of ridiculous. I definitely use it the most out of all those sites, though I still have a myspace and everything.
CLYDE
Facebook is sooo addicting. I love it though. What's not to love?

haha. Quite a while ago actually. I don't think a lot of people realize that I've changed my username so no one recognizes me anymore. sad.gif

Steph! We have to catch up either through facebook or emails again.
Alvin
I'm a member of facebook. I'm actually on there right now. I love facebook.
Just_Dream
What's cool is when you add new pictures, Facebook tells all your friends on there, and you can tag people. On myspace, no one knows you have new pictures until you change your main picture. :P

I know. All these applications are clogging up Facebook! I hate the Top 8 thing.
Macintosh
Well you don't have to install the top friends thing.
Applications take up a lot of space which I dislike.
Detective
Yeah and it also slows down my computer sometimes.

Yeah, I know, but for some reason it annoyed me when I saw the Top 8 application. :|
There are a lot of applications I want to add, but right now my graffiti wall already takes up a lot of space. pinch.gif
