I has a Facebook

Which is only because Rob lured me in. Evil man.

But you can add me and stuff, if you're on there.

ETA: Please tell me if you're adding me, so I know who you are!

I had a facepalm once.

Was it painful?

[crackpig.livejournal.com]

Not as painful as the asspalm.

Dude, I remember when there were only about a dozen schools on there.

I'm not all an addict as some of my friends, I graduated just as it really really took off, but it's funny how addicted ppl are. It's awesome for pics and party invites though.

Added ya, just don't put "internet" on the "how we met bit" I try to keep it a bit on the dl, lol. ;)

It's really gone a bit insane in the US, the Facebook thing? Least that's my impression.

:P

Well, it started as ony for students at a few schools. Unlike myspace the membership was restricted, and it was more student oriented. all profiles are private, and you can put more personal contact info. Everyone used it to message their friends randomly after a night out, etc. Especially in the dorms. You can identify the hall, and floor you're on hella easily. Some people add everyone they meet (my cousins got like 700-900+ friends at their schools alone)

My favorite thing is the photo album and the way that you can tag every person in a pic and link back to their profile. Most of the time, if you identify a person in one pic, it'll automatically link back to that person's picture page too. Mine isn't like that since I turned the link back off since I'm also on my company's network and I look kinda drunk in a few, or they're pics from mexico, etc. If you click on the photo album on my page, everyone in that one is tagged.

This is denara, your guide to random facebook features. =)

Yes, Facebook started out as an indexing device for the Ivy Leagues. Then it spread to the lesser, state schools, opened its doors to the general public and is rapidly aspiring to be the next, improved MySpace.

My knowledge, in a nutshell.

There were non-ivies at the begining too though. My school was added early on in the game, maybe in the first dozen or so, though we're one of the "lesser state schools". =)

Facebook is so much fun! :D I added you, I'm Emmylou :)

It really has exploded over here recently. Prepare to be assimilated... facebook will steal your soul...and lots of your time. My classmates dragged me onto it kicking and screaming...it owns me now :(

(I also add you, being a Wendy)

Facebook owns my soul, it really does. Mostly just because of the ability to poke people at random.

I'm adding you. I being a Helen of the Brand variety.

[smalldiver.livejournal.com]

The poke feature is my favourite :D I've had an ongoing poke-athon with a friend for about a month now!

[neongreenleaf.livejournal.com]

Myspace < Facebook fo'sho.

[maramyanet.livejournal.com]

I'm on there - Maramyanet from Puerto Rico :D

I'll definitely add you!

[stringertheory.livejournal.com]

I'm ambivalent about adding you.

I rarely ever use facebook anymore (the newness wore off quite quickly, it must be said).

On the flipside, if I friend you, I can add you to my list of 'Neverending-Poking War' people (I'm up to two right now).

What the hell.

I'm Kelly from Wesleyan. Nice to add you. ;)

[lyricalviolet.livejournal.com]

When the get the email that says something like "Jill Ericksen wants to add you as a Facebook friend" that's me =p

[kitness.livejournal.com]

[aelie-baby.livejournal.com]

I'll go ahead and add you! I'm Rachel from Southwestern.
