"Can I say you're my girlfriend on Facebook?"

max works at a daycare with no fire exits.

no fire exits makes it harder for arsonists to get in, see

your interests include "pedophilia" or "arson"?

But that would be the only thing we have in common! Seriously my bosses are far too old to care about shit like Facebook.

people with myspace accounts should be culled.

damn i should chillax

Most everyone at work jumped on the FB bandwagon, so they could be "hip like the students." They strong-armed me into signing up. I had to explain what a poke was to my boss, and then show her how to send a personal message.

It was depressing.

I just signed up for this today, totally different world to myspace. It's like a more grown-up bebo really, and I never warmed to bebo. It'll take some time to get used to.

How Facebook could crush MySpace, Yahoo!, and Google (from Slate.com).

zoe, i'm intrigued as to which "bosses" you mean ;)

it's the unease of a party when both your mates and your boss are there. You have different social registers for these people

er. i don't, really. there are subtleties and niceties, but it's all one big swirling vortex round grimly's social sphere.

The typical Facebooker spends hours each day sending messages, posting "notes" or blog entries, and uploading photos, along with trolling for freshmen girls who love the Decemberists.

journalists be hyperbolizin

some people on there have like 20-30 comments a day, most of which are the same message

"wow sounds like you had a great time!!! how was steve?? work is really busy at the moment! im off to Madrid in August!!! How cool is that????!!"

feels like being in a town centre pub in somewhere like Hatfield

"im really excited about the wedding!! photos look amazing!! have you seen any of the old gang around at all?!!! mikey is still just the same!!"

WELCOME TO THE REVOLUTION

6968080

which incidentally was my telephone number in 1985

Ed how was last night!!! sorry i couldnt make it round!! I had to work late!! crazy busy! what are you doing this weekend??? Is it ok if i bring round the macbook so you can do that cloning thing!! We'll have to meet up for drinks soon!! I'm busy all week and then its Dezzers stag on friday which should be AMAZING!!! How about sat??

I deleted my MySpace Account. I feel much cleaner now.

but 696 you must know these people if you can read their messages... surely you don't mind it that much.

he's looking for insider info on the housing crash

"I just paid £95,000 for a 2 bedroom buy to let in Croydon! WICKED!! I'm in the $$$$s now!"

fwiw: with one exception, all the ilx0rspeople I've added as FB friends are ppl i know in real life. does this make me rude and standoffish? it's not meant to.

I would be exactly the same! I don't need to keep up with strangers and their doings...

i don't need a public internet site to keep up with people i properly know though...

Sat could be good but I might be on for some beers up north (North of Luton!!!!! Scary!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!), go clubbin' with the Lads. Buzz me friday see if there underwater or not.

<i>i don't need a public internet site to keep up with people i properly know though...</i>

ach, i don't *need* one. but it's kinda fun. also: experiments with private internet sites (no, rly) haven't been resoundingly successful.

i'm not saying facebook is revolutionary -- it's palpably not. i think its current popularity will wane quickly. but fuck it. it's put me in touch with a couple of old friends, and it suits my purposes well.

i'd probably be fine with it but it sort of makes complicated situations public and more complicated....

r u on last.fm?

lol

"Facebook users who like to control who gets to see your account details, take note: political views, religious back ground and other sensitive details may be wide open to prying eyes even though you've configured your profile so its viewable only to designated friends.

That's because the user setting that allows only designated friends to view a user's profile has no effect on whether the contents of that profile can be searched by the Facebook community at large. Users who want to block their profiles from being searched must go through an additional step."

it wasn't a joke :(

i keep adding people from my degree course at university who i've not seen since then. probably silly but nice to see old faces again at least.

i can't find the i love music group on FB. :-(

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2200160366

I keep meaning to join it, but I don't want people I know to think I love music :/

I may have already exaggerated my love of Ivan Campo in that regard

I am the small Pogatetz

i'm halfway to quitting it because this just leads to headaches and/or aforementioned randoms. i'm being a bit prissy about it i guess.

I've started getting former school mates bringing the "AIN'T SIN YOU FOR AGES" to what was previously a contended quip-trading circle-jerk between a bunch of people I already spend a lot of time with. It's all turning from gold into shit.

contented, I mean

it's only as complicated as you want to make it.

Maybe I don't really know what I want, Steve

in these crazy times i can't say i blame you. but thanks for friending me.

two mutual friends~!

Somebody start an ILx group. I feel like a liar in the ILM one.

Ok, should do that. I don't listen to enough musickness these days.

ILE on FB.

nope

he's right.

Yeah I would do it but I really have no clue how. I can barely join groups.

:-( I made it a closed group. So if you change your mind, I will reject you anyway. Actually if you (no matter who) prefers it is an open group, I'll switch.

waht

*note to self* insert appropriate emoticons showing you are joking.

I couldn't find it. . .
