I went full circle with it....

Joined to play games and keep in toucch with Nieces..... Found out some of my motorcycle forum buddies were on it..... got involved with Mob Wars.... Mafia Wars.... and a few other games. Became obsessed and addicted. Broke away from the games, and now just use it as a social tool and back to keeping in touch with family and friends....

facebook goes into your email accnt addressbook and invites everyone in it to be your friend. i was unknowingly sending friend requests to people that i didnt really want to be friends.
after learning this i cancelled my accnt w/ them. pretty shady... i like myspace better. jmo.

Well I just don't put things in my profile I don't want others to see, and you don't have to add anyone you don't want too. You can even block others if you choose too. I also have a MySpace, it's in my sig. I like that you can customize it, check mine out

I'm on it also. I use it for keeping in touch with friends from the past and posting pics of my daughter and life experiences. Easier to share photos that way rather than emailing them.

If you wanna be my friend, just send me a request

Found a buddy from the Tidewater Trans Am Club that I haven't talked to in 15 years or so; that was pretty cool. Other than that, mostly just for family.

I've been on it for a 5-6 months. More than anything else it was a way to keep up with relatives and a few old friends.

Only if you tell it too. It doesn't do it on its own.

The kids and my better half are on. So far, I'm not. I might like it and end up spending too much time there.

Since I live 1000 miles from where I grew up, FB is a great tool. I've found many "old" friends that I've not talked to in years...
