after a while, that chick's voice drives me up the wall.

i think it's less forboding than they make it sound, though it's true that the info you put on facebook could harm you. i've heard of people being refused jobs on the basis of what their employer found on their facebook.

annoying, but fair. i haven't got anything incriminating on mine, though. well, it says i like mushrooms and marijuana a lot, but what are they going to do, come to my house and try to bust me? i've got nothing on me :P

Hills! Seriously, get out quick! Save yourself!

If you thought MySpace was bad, just wait until you've had your 72nd Zombie/Pirate/Karate Fight/Personality Test request from some twat you vaguely met once and didn't especially like anyone, but who steadfastly persists in spamming all 1435 "friends" they've hoovered up by systematically leeching onto everyone they have met, vaguely met, or once talked to at work. You might be picking up on the fact that I don't like it very much...

To summarise: Facebook is the biggest pile of hairy dogs nuts on the internet. Deleted my account a while back and haven't missed it once.

What's the point of a Facebook, just wondering? Like what would be a good reason for someone to get one?

i use it to connect to my friends who are in different time zones, actually it makes getting in touch quite easy. if you're using it like i'm usin it..

Me neither. I'm on the verge of deleting my myspace account, then stop using the internet, and probably the computer for that matter.

I have one and I rarely touch my profile. It's just another fun way to keep in contact with friends. I've even discovered people I haven't talked to in years and honestly 1 girl I met through facebook a few years ago and im confident I've made a lifelong friend. She's amazing. Also, there's a new IM feature that makes it really easy to talk to my sister who lives in Guatemala.

It's not about assuming people give a shit about what movies I like or how many pictures of my mug I can take at slightly different angles. Not for me at least.

I've considered that also. But every time I do I remember the time my ex-girlfriend broke her phone for the 6th time and came up with the idea that she no longer needed a cell phone. She claimed she was now "free." I wondered how asking her sister to use her phone all the time was.. "free."

It's not technology's fault. I'm just a lazy f**k sometimes.

Whoa, check it out. I post quantity.

A friend of mine was telling me about this the other day, but not in so much detail. I actually found that really pretty interesting & informative, cheers cupz.

What's the point of Facebook?

That site makes me both laugh and cringe; I read that list and it's tick, tick, tick...

So, who is gonna be the first to try and recreate MHTRTC?

Seriously, some of these have to be seen to be believed.
