I've just been forced into getting it. As if I didn't get enough spam from Myspace, Bebo niether of which I use anymore, but can't delete them. And then there's PNG... by far the worst... lol

So who has facebook, and the "Car Enthusiast" app which is the only decent thing on it so far!

Facebook was fantastic until they introduced applications. Since then it's exactly the same as any other social networking website, full of morons adding various crap to abstract away from the point of it.

I'm on FB if only to keep tabs on uni & school mates tbh. The whole applications ollux does my nutt in. Everytime I log in I've got to wade through acres of sh*t about how Scott Parker is having a race or someone thinks I'm a great mate or whatever.

Its got a bit big for its own good IMO but the concept is great though somewhat American.

Hi to anyones thats befriended me btw! Oh & Fabio & Grooverider locked on FB. FTW

Facebook is brilliant, especially being at uni ! Theres allways stuff happening, Parties, birthdays e.t.c and it's awesome for remembering it all / getting invited.When i leave, i don't think i'l use it as MUCH, but it's still by far the best "social neworking" kinda thing.

Oh, and you can Block applications and do tons of other tweaks -it's not an easy interface to use or find things though !

Yeah and yours is set to private too.

Jack

Aren't ALL profiles on FB "private"? I thought you can only see the full profile if you add someone as a friend.

Its not like Myspazz where you have the choice of whether anonymous viewers can look at your profile or not.

Some are set as private some arent... type a random name in, them with there names in black are private them in blue arent.

you can make your profile visible to anyone, but as a general rule of thumb, you can see anyones profile if they are in the same network as you. (unless they use the limited access options)

I dont use "social networking" sites. I found a few wonderful inventions called mobile phone's and automobiles.

My mobile phone lets me contact my non social networking friends via there mobile phone and then my automobile amazingly takes me to there residence where we talk.
Face to face, in person. Thus eliminating my "Dataz" being stolen and used to obtain Visa's for the likes of Abu Hamzad.

True, there are way too many people i know that literally live via Facebook - Slowly becoming real life social retards.

One great thing is it cuts my phone bill down though, I'm signed into Messenger constantly and hotmail, so it's allmost as good as a mobile at times, but without the cost ! :thumb:

I agree with Nick, facebook is amazing for knowing the events and parties that are going on :D

The most addictive application is that Owned!, me and Burgo have encountered many bidding wars. lol

Ahhh, its hard to beat the old www.faceparty.com (http://www.faceparty.com)

The only place you can be as racest, offensive and insulting as you like til you get banned, and then just open a new Profile. LOL

Also, I love the live chat rooms and everyone in them seems to be nuts!!

with FB, just turn off all the crap you dont want to recieve :D easy then.

Yes phones and cars are good, but when you moved away from an area before mobiles were commonplace and siad people have also scattered across the county, it makes finding them easier :D Got back in contact with a load of old school mates who I've not seen/heard from since 1996 lol.

I'm on it purely for getting in touch with old mates/school chums.

I got quite into it for about a week and very rarely go on now (I keep meaning to, but its always one of the things I never quite get round to doing lol)
