I'm loving this Facebook thing...

[bicentennial_baby]

I just found a friend from HS I've been searching for forever! And now we're messaging!! w00t! Me happy. :D

Added another HS friend and a CC friend. Much nicer than MySpace. :)

3. And another innocent person is assimilated by Facebook...

I can't help it. I was absorbed by Facebook a long time ago, and now I'm utterly and hopelessly hooked.

4. How does it work - I need a tute

Do people use their true names?

How do you find people - by region?

5. Real names or email addys I think...

I found all of my friends via our school affiliations (HS and college), searched for them via real names. People still knew who I was even though I'm using my married name there. :)

15. People generally use real names, yes.

You just search for those, though you can also search by network. :)

6. I love it too!

Didn't know you had one.

I am never on MyWaste any more b/c I am liking Facebook too much.

PM me your page or whatevs, and we'll be homies. :)

10. can you browse it without signing up?

and then decide if you want to join, depending on who you may find? :shrug:

I hated myspace...too much spam.

[bigwillq]

11. I think so.

I don't remember from when before I joined. Most profiles are locked unless you have an account and are their friends.

MySpace doesn't have a lot of spam if you set your features correctly. They have a lot of new security features now that has cut back on the spam. I don't get any spam anymore since I changed my features.

12. thanks for the info.

16. Your welcome (nt)

It's a lot cleaner than MySpace.. for now.

18. I just tried searching Facebook for HS classmates ...

... the closest I could guess at were 12-25 yrs younger than me. :-(

[JackBeck]

19. Thanks for the add!

I don't facebook that much. I totally need to catch-up on my "pokes".

:hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

20. I'm all squeee that I found you!!

And yes, squee is both an exclamation and an adjective, in my world :rofl:

MWAH! :loveya:

[SarahB]

21. You inspired me!

I ran into one of the few interesting friends I had from high school. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to talk to her soon. :hi:

[quakerboy]

22. Yup. better

the only thing I am seeing so far is that I cant seem to clear people who are friends of friends but I dont really care for from the list of "you might be friends with...". whats with that? am I just tech special?
