Social Networking Sites
So who uses 'em? Which ones do you use?
I use Facebook, but never got into myspace or any of the other smaller ones that popped up. I really like facebook because it lets me keep up with my friends and family. Even my parents recently joined facebook, which is kind of fun . |

Everyone knows about MySpace but nobody seems to use it.
Tessar, PM me your profile and we can be friends on Facebook

I still have a LiveJournal which I mainly use nowadays to keep up with a couple of ex-mooters and a few communities that interest me. That and one or two forums is pretty much all I do of networking sites. I'm not an outgoing person so the only 'friends' I make that way seem to be the people I already knew before.

I'm on Facebook. Earniel - I don't think I've made any NEW friends there, but it has become a great place to find and be found by, old friends from way back, way way back, or way way WAY back!

Oh, so you've got a few skeletons in the cupboard from the past, eh?

Hahah, hardly. Just a couple of people I parted from on less than great terms. Not sure if I ever want to meet them again.

I used to use Myspace (however, I still have it), but I'm a facebook junkie now!
(And the good 'ol days back in Middle School when I used xanga religiously. I love going back and reading them sometimes - the problems I used to have!)

A few moments ago Facebook introduced usernames in the style of "facebook.com/username"
Sharing profiles will be much simpler this way.

I only have Facebook besides Entmoot and Europeforum. I don´t use Facebook all that much really. Not for games and stuff anyway, just to keep in touch with some people who do not have IM.

But don't let the name fool you. There are more non-Europeans than Europeans present

One thing I love about facebook is that it can allow you to keep up with people without being too invasive... I have a few friends I don't really talk to that often, but with facebook I have a general idea of what's going on in their lives so that when we do talk we actually have some good conversation starters other than "nice weather," or "how about that new law?" |

I sometimes see names of people I knew/know in my 'suggested friends' list, but I never feel comfortable just adding me. What if they've forgotten me? What if they don't like me or just aren't interested? I usually just wait for the other to add me.
Does anyone else have that?
