Face Book...

[icecreamgirl]

Is confusing the hell out of me!!
I know you lot have been excited by this, i went on ages ago and registared..
I've even now got one friend (Hello- you know who you are!!)
BUT
That's as far as i've got, my sister keeps going on about how great it is, you can send me a fish for my aquarium she says
What??????
I keep trying to look for people i know but i'm wondering if there's something wrong, maybe it's really busy or something as it keeps freezing and not doing anything and i KNOW they are out there!!!!!
Anyone else befuddled by this new waste of time...er...i mean fab social website thingy...??????

I joined a while ago but I didn't really get it until about a week ago - what's your user name on there and I'll look you up.

I think I registered with face book - but find it really mind numbingly confusing so haven't been on it for a while too.

Cheers.

I love facebook!

Oh I am afraid I am a total Facebook freak! I actually spend more time on there now than on here!!!
At the moment I am obsessed with playing Scrabble ..I'm not really very good but I have four games on the go at the moment!!
I use it to keep in touch with my friends and family members that I never see..which is most of them!!
I'm a convert..I've also met some great crafty people through joining card making and scrapbooking networks. I have new friends I have never actually met. It's great!

I registered on face book but none of my friends have really done anything on it for ages... I think I'll probably disappear into obscurity on it slowly... and I keep having to change my privacy settings as face book start allowing people to use the details they hold to find you through google and I just didn't want that!

I have an aqaurium with lots of fish but often there is a problem with facebook just freezing and saying it is busy or being fixed or whatever.

You and me both! I'm registered and have a few 'friends' but I really don't see the point of it. An old work friend I'd lost touch with did contact me on there but now we talk via email not facebook and some of the other friends I see regularly anyway or talk to on msn.

I was just like you icecreamgirl ..... until about a week ago! I'm sorry, but I'm a facebook freak too now.

I've joined a couple of networks (groups) that have potentially led to a few business leads, so it's worth it from that point of view.

If you go to my website, there's a link to my facebook page on there.

I try to keep it semi-business-like - no personal photographs and I'm not registered in my personal name.

Just ask yourself - do you need another distraction though?!

I have to hold up my hand regarding not understanding it either! Or is because I just don't spend enough time on there trying to get to grips with it?????

Ohh caketopper, where in Germany did you go to school? Are you an ex army brat? I used to be one myself as well as an ex army wife!

I used to go to Prince Rupert School when it was in Wilhemshaven and it was also a boarding school...........I know they have since moved it.

My kids used to go to Kings School as well!
