It is frightening lol... At least it ain't Twitter! i neva been on twitter... i don't know what it is... i hear it on all the radio, tv...

Facebook is a great way to find old mates from yrs gone by though.

What do they say about it? :P
Its definitely not hte best place to make friends ... haha...
but beats the cost of a phone convo... + you can show progress pics to make photo albums etc without hte cost of printing and storing CD's...
and arranging meetups and events is soo much easier than a list and calling every individual person.
i check it now and then and spend 5 mins at most at a time...
I don't know how anyone could live on it haha. But... i'm sure theres some people who do!
Last forever!? gah! i got a few yrs yet of engineering.. bout half way through. 1 assignment this fri... and 3 exams... (fun fun...., i hope no one
gets jealous now :P)
sigh... who am i kidding... i'm in denial. It sux...

I think people can be quite blinded by facebook. You create an event (like a bbq) and invite people on FB. what about the people without FB. I've not
been invited to about 4 events in the last 2 weeks, because i dont know about it.
Also, birthdays. it reminds you when peoples birthday is! and then they write on your wall.... they dont even have the time to send you a text (which
was regarded as rude 5 years ago) let alone call and wish you a happy birthday.
Its also a stalking ground IMO, - and people think they know you because of status updates and events you attend etc. - when thats not true at all.
Getting caught up in it is a really bad thing, as you stop making real friends and having real relationships with people. (for the record I'm not
saying I've never done this, I am just saying this is how I see it.)

i totally agree hence why i have been always against it.... plus the more personal info on the net, it makes it easier for government agencies to
keep tabs on you.... but still, i caved, so if u have it and want other vw'ers to add u then go for it....

I'm on there & in the AVD group. Test your research/investigative skills and see if you can find me. :P
Not much activity or point in the group, or FB generally. Fortunately I don't have too many friends.....
