    Actually, yes there is much Canada, but it's all in the south, near the US border where 90% of the Canadian population lives.

    What is VERY telling is the absence of China. Largest nation on the planet, one where many have computer access, but with censorship and monitoring, Facebook is not part of the conversation.

    Oh Race, Us Canadians you just cant see on that map..the glow of the US sorta blots us out...lol..but it is ok, we are used to being confused with the US...we just sigh..and say no, I am not an American...I like my beer to be strong, my women beautiful and I appreciate a 2 on 1 being stopped by a kick save and a beauty!

    I have never used it , but, I was watching with one of the young 'uns while they were posting to their friends.
    It's almost like a pyramid scheme. I invite you , you invite someone else and on and on it goes.

    Interesting though as it seems to have swallowed up MySpace.

    I'm on board with all that. Can I be an honorary Canadian?
