I am on there. I have no idea about the groups and vampires and zombies and, ..., well all of it. Also it seems much more difficult to post pictures, hence why I only have on up there.

At an OP in view of your house...
Forgive me for not being cool, but what the hell is facebook? Why facebook vs. myspace? What's the point or difference? I know that one of these days I am going to have to get a page somewhere, so that is why I ask... :)

Well, I just added one. Can't even see what the thing is about without setting up an account first. Far as I can tell, it's MySpace.

I had asked in another thread somewhere what facebook was and I still do not know. If it is just another myspace I would rather join one of those spam adds I keep getting

Facebook is this months hot social network site. It's plus is, it's got all these supposely cool aps, and seems to have better integration with it's bits n all. The negative is, it's confusing as hell and less customizable.

Personally, I hate em all. LOL!

Its very similar to MySpace. Same concepts, different delivery and packaging.

I've never even looked at the Facebook site. I have a had enough time keeping up with myspace. I'm a slacker who rarely leaves comments and sometimes I don't answer messages. I'm curious to see what Facebook is all about though.

We've debated setting one up for the band. The thing is, as our default computer guy, I don't know if I want to deal with maintaining two sites. Does Facebook have an equivalent to Myspace Music?

Heck if I know. I'm still trying to figure out how to use the dang thang. I need like 5 to 10 friends to do anything fun, it seems, and right now The Lisa is my only friend (haven't logged on yet today, tho).

I did play on Scrabulous though, Lisa, so it's your turn. :p

Hahahaha! I have tried to understand this Facebook thing. I really have. I have co-workers who are my junior who use it. I have friends in real life who use it.

As Bob Hubbard posted above, Facebook has the single most un-intuitive interface of ANY application that I have ever seen. Maybe its just me, but I think not, because I see others saying the same thing.

I'm a myspace kind of guy myself, mostly because I can't understand how to navigate on the facebook site, and, myspace is where all the "cool" people are anyway. Facebook is for a bunch of corporate CEO wannabes!!!!!!!!

For me it's refreshing that people's pages come up quickly (dialup queen here about to get broadband) and I don't have to listen to someone's music I don't like or wait until all those friggin videos and graphics load. Yeah, it's neat but ... I have to squint to read more often than not.

I like the games on facebook, that's kinda kewl, and how the comments (wall) feature functions.

You do know that can be disabled, right? :uhoh:
Well, in the first place, I wasn't talking about your site.

Second, yes I do.

Thirdly, I have yet to accumulate the patience to do it - I pay more attention, right now, to messages, bulletins, comments. But in a week ... zowie! ;)
