I could live without his ten or twelve a day updates - "Having coffee at the coffeeshop!" "Off to the meeting!" All with an exclamation point! linda I've seen that on Face Book as well except with a few more words. Oh, I know. I've changed who's updates I see automatically. I thought I was going to scream every time J made it a new level in some game she was playing. And that was 4-5 in fifteen minutes Hopefully you don't mean me?! FB is not supposed to be publishing those--I deliberately choose "skip"! Jinx Heck no! You log off, I swear this person is on 24/7 and half her updates are from her husband Phew! It sounded just like me, and my stage name starts with J! A couple friends of mine and I like to challenge each other with high scores in Bejeweled. Each round only lasts 60 seconds, so it updates frequently. When I need a few minutes of mindlessness during the day that's my brainkiller of choice. And I usually just keep FB open in a separate browser all day (although minimized), so it probably looks like that's all I do all day long, too. LOL So if it's me, I apologize! Jinx Honest, it is not you, she's New England girl.... C |

Ellice Again, it depends on how you choose to use it. I know several people who try to friend all their friends' friends, and then all their friends' friends' friends, in a quest to have more friends than anyone else. I won't approve as a FB friend anyone I don't know personally. If I wouldn't invite you to dinner at my house, you're not getting on my FB friend list. If that means I have comparatively few friends, so be it. I have to admit I asked Cheryl if *ABC* was who I thought she might be. Not always knowing last names is sometimes a bit of a puzzle. Yes *ABC* we are friends. Gill |

In defense of Facebook
my $0.03
a friend from long ago first clued me in about facebook; then my 'kids' and who live within shouting distance (if one has strong lungs) started jabbering about it. Occassionally my far off nieces and nephews post messages or pictures. I don't text message on my cell phone (too cheap to add that feature) which they love so I leave 'em messages on facebook and they actually get back to me quicker than leaving messages on their voice mails. I've learned alot (all good things) about DIL from her posts on FB. the downside is that they got me hooked on Mafia Wars so I'm stitching less. -- another anne, add ingers to reply |
