    hey all - i put this in the hobby forum...simply cause facebook is basically a hobby to alot of people. haha.

    check it out - www.facebook.com

    a place of meeting with friends - and a place where i've found friends that i had way back in elementary school. haha.

    it's very clean - they're very picky on people's display names - and if they catch a picture in somebody's profile that is rather disturbing (sexual in nature) - then they pull it off and warn the person.

    i like it alot. haha.

    thought i'd share something a bit random today i guess.. i don't even know if this's been talked about on BB yet. :p

    God bless!

    just signed up for facebook. It's pretty cool. We should get a BB facebook group started, so we can all keep in contact outside the BB.

    Thats an idea. Asking the Admin Council their thoughts. Don't want to use the name without consent.

    I'm on facebook, and I like it because I have found friends from high school and college there that I haven't seen in years. We can easily keep in touch, and share pics of the kids, etc. It's fun!

    For those who've been on Facebook for a while, would you happen to know anything about the "Where I've Been Application"? I just noticed that mine seems to have come up with a feature I haven't seen on there before - "Current location", and it gives mine as a place in California. Now I have been in the town they mention, (I used to live in CA), but am definitely not there right now. (Too bad - it's lovely! - lol!) How did they come up with that?, and how do I get rid of it? Thanks!

    I don't remember if there is a way to send a note with a join request. If there is, please submit you BB screen name

    Facebook is a sight that was started by Harvard Students to network.

    It is sorta like myspace, but more professional...

    It is a way to network with everyone you know.

    look it up on Wikipedia.... I have both myspace and facebook accounts.

    I've never seen that before.

    I have a problem with christians trying to copy everything and making it "Christian". Facebook and Myspace are good enough. I would rather a lost person see my profile and love for Jesus than a believer. The world needs to know the difference between us and them is Christ, not how many "christian" copycat things we can come up with (Godtube, Christianspace, etc.)
