Of course! I'm waiting to get my posts up to 15 or whatever it is so I can post some music vids etc.

Won't happen by posting in here

Is that right - I notice I've only got 4 posts but I thought I'd posted more than that :confused:

lounge posts don't add to your tally

Rightio ........... thanks for the info :beer:

Oxy I agree completely. My only regret is having had a facebook in the past that is still cached and easily accessible.

I've had police investigate friends based on their posts, managers are being told to pry into them before interviews-not to mention what you say on them since employment can easily get you fired.

It's not like people I want to contact aren't communicable otherwise. And other people I don't care enough to actually want to interact with in person I can't be bothered to care what their up to, nor do i desire their superficial acceptance or "like"

An easy, instantaneous way to communicate with people you like, friends who (in some cases) have moved on and wouldn't otherwise be easily contactable, a way to share interesting information, and a way to keep up to date with events/gigs/parties etc? Yeah, terrible!

I did a lot of embarrassing **** on Facebook when I was younger, but I also got laid a lot with its help too. I regret nothing. At certain times, in certain situations, it can be a very valuable social tool, and it was for me. I use it sparingly now, but I'm glad it exists.

It's only a problem if you have mostly boring and vacuous people as friends. Otherwise, no bother.

I see Facebook more as a nice way to keep in touch with old friends who have moved far away. Without picking up the phone and spending on long distance phone calls, it is a convenient way to keep in touch. Nothing more. Otherwise, I agree that it is a collossal waste of time. But so are so many things, including posting in forums! :p ;)

Never used it. Probably never will. But I can see it's potential. It could even be argued that without Facebook there'd be no Arab Spring.

It's a tool, innit; and tools are only as good as the people wielding them.

Facebook?
