I like FB for the photo share, and have done some catching up with old school buds. The only FB "game" I play is Hold 'em poker, but I have been surprised at the intensity with which my policeman colleagues play "Mafia Wars."

I only spend maybe five minutes a day on Face Book. I suppose it has it's merits. I would not have known about the Outer Banks Tuba Retreat had it not been for a message I received through FB.

I used to make use of Face Book a lot. I have cut back and now spend more time on TubeNet!

I was talked into getting a Facebook page by someone I went to college with and I'm glad I did. It's good for finding long lost friends and reconnecting. That being said, I have a personal goal of never allowing my friends list to get bigger than 100. Once it gets there, I will start to eliminate friends that I got at the beginning that were really just friends of the friends that I know. People that I online game with will be in the next cut.

I wonder what Betty White would think of TubeNet? Something similar, I would imagine.

Update. I deleted my FB account.

they are simply trying to monetize people's timewasting, and I don't need to facilitate that.
