I regard facebook as a way of conversing with acquaintances who in the end probably don't really give a sh!t what your up to, anyone who is a friend will find a better way of getting in contact with you, but that's just my opinion, all the people with over 300 " friends " will tell you something different.

and my line of work is somewhat related (to the original post). facebook profiles, music tastes and the like can potentially have some correlation with purchasing preferences. it's good to know who your customer is rather than just a name and address.
anyone on facebook has no reason of complaint, put your information in public view and quite simply it's available for public use. there's the option of not using it all or being more careful about what others (and you) see. |

Better than Twitter though. It's like going online to watching adverts

well erse, in the states they breached some laws on informed consent, which I believe is at the heart of this issue

I use it. It's a good place to store images, like winning bets
 I had a couple of decent touches recently, so you may as well gloat about them!You can keep in remote touch with, for example, old friends or people you went to school with, but don't see, as they live some way away from you. |

No - used to be.....just people thinking we are all interested in what they,ve done, where they,ve been and nobody else has anything better to do......................................................................................................

the headline shouldve been something more like facebook discovers sheepish behaviour in people among peers
|

By:
Like - Im really interested in who has vacuumed the house, done the washing and cooked a meal, horses they have backed, what they did the weekend, pictures of a bruised toe playing hockey, who is suffering from tonsillitus, bad cold, flu, who they are/were with, where they are/were, what they like........etc., GET A LIFE!

never joined it as I have no interest in what ex school friends are doing, and I certainly don't want to meet any of them

no, no twitter either.

It's quite good for seeing things like Sparky when he had hair! You would have to know his name though.

People will happily discuss things on here with a complete stranger, yet they think facebook, where you normally know the people you interact with, is some alien software that people should be ashamed of using

dont know how anybody remembers their school friends names. cant remember anybody i went to school with by their full name. wouldnt recognise any of em if they stood in the street staring at me for an hour. im always getting random people say talk to me who apparently know me, never got a clue who the hell they are. theres girls i used to go out with who i cant even remember their first name, never mind would recognise them again.

Every day - socially, professionally, recreationally. Organising a BBQ for Sunday currently. So much easier and less intrusive than phoning people, so much more powerful than email.

what about the brainwashing though sparky?

I was very into fb about 6 years ago.
then i realised it was designed for loud/rich people to show off on. Not missed a thing since. |

I've got mates in Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Canada, America, Spain, Germany and so on and I find it's a very useful tool to keep in touch with them all. I have been seeing an old girlfriend again which has been really good news and we would never have crossed paths again otherwise.

We went to bro's pub for lunch last weekend cmat and then took the dogs for a long walk on Box Hill afterwards, it was extremely nice. I was a bit wary of getting contact again as 20 years ago I was a bit of a git to her but as things turned out she forgave me and well..you know.  |
