Facebook

[happydapy]

I'm on it. I like it becuase it allows me to find friends I haven't talked to in awhile. It is also a way to find groups that may exsist on campus. But it gets "old" pretty fast.

I'm on it, but I also believe it is a fad. One news article I read lately is that possible employers can access facebook through some possible loopholes and check out applicants profiles. The article was talking about the need for people who post on things like Facebook need to be aware of a lot more than just a fun bulliten board fad site.

Fortunately, Facebook is still catching on and growing bigger over the pond, here in the UK!
Top sign you're addicted: you see someone in the Union, and can't for the life of you remember where you know them from. Then it clicks. You've seen their picture on Facebook.
Oh dear...

there's at least a two billion dollar price tag on facebook, if anyone wants to buy it.

I am on facebook and myspace.

Facebook is a good way to keep in touch with collegiate friends and associates. It's also a good way for me to send messages to my college students. I work with college kids and they're all linked up on my facebook. It's also a good way to advertise for summer opennings/internships we have in our organization.

Myspace has been amazing in helping my highschool friends. Many of my high school friends obviously graduate before facebook was created so most of them don't have access to their collegiate accounts that would make it easier for me to find them. The only thing annoying about myspace is that unless you know the email addy or the exact myspace account name its hard to find people. Ever tried looking for a Sarah or a Ti m on there?

Facebook is okay but I prefer Myspace far over it, as well as Xanga surpassing Facebook. Not enough features.

 

[Shannonkish]

I, too, have facebook. It is alright. I think if I were still in undergrad it would be more exciting.

The percentage of people holding alcoholic beverages in their photos on facebook is astounding.

 

[buckeyegirl06]

I'm pretty much addicted to Facebook. I'll meet people and then go home and add them on Facebook. It's pretty sad, actually.

 

[renaistre]

I'm on there, but I don't use it much.

 

[Mrs. Luther073082]

So what do you all think about the news feed/mini feed thing that facebook added the other day?

 

[Echoespeak006]

Hate it. Hate it. HATE IT!

...and I've said as much.

 

[DJ B.K.]

I'm boycotting facebook over this stupid stalking news feed!

 

[Nienor]

I like Facebook even though it's become stalkerish. But there's a CF group! Everyone should join it

(I don't think I can post a link...)

 

[Mrs. Luther073082]

Yeah, I joined that group that has almost 700,000 members that are against the news/mini feed.

Yeah, I created the CF group.

 

[Mrs. Luther073082]

Can you join a group without it automatically being broadcast to everyone you know?

 

[DJ B.K.]

Can you join a group without it automatically being broadcast to everyone you know?

Not right now. I have a feeling they're going to have at least let people opt out o the news feed eventually.

 

[Nienor]

Can you join a group without it automatically being broadcast to everyone you know?

Yeah, you can join then go to your profile and hit the little X on your news feed. THen its hidden
