There are some odd bugs within the facebook apps... such as "Martin is 81% like Martin on the Priorities in Life quiz."
But then, I have not entirely felt like my usual self lately.. :p :

A few dumb questions: If I don't have an account, can I still be registered as someone's "friend"? If so, is there a way to find out (again, without an account)? Is a photo mandatory? Can I be registered without one?
You can browse without registering, but there's very little else you can do.
If you're curious, register anyway. It's easy enough to unregister afterwards if you don't like it :)
You don't need a photo, plenty of people either don't bother or use an avatar.
The guessing game, who is who?
I guess some people I don't need to guess :p :
add me as a friend if you do eventually get on ;) .. and you owe me a sig bet lolQuote:

One good thing is that now there's no need to open every second month the regular "what do you look like" -thread... :p
I use Facebook fairly often. I say use but what I really mean is spy on my mates and have a go at the fantasy football. It's quite cool for getting pictures of yourself because people take cameras on nights out and you can see how drunk you were.
In fewer words, I have no idea why I go on facebook :D
I'm in :)
I think thats against the spirit of the whole thing. I don't add anybody as a friend who doesn't have a pic of themselves, unless I know them very well indeed. I often get randoms that I knew, but barely spoke to, from school, adding me but they have no pic - no thanks.Quote:

Bezza, you're so shallow. :p :
There was an article in some news site today about these kind of sites, the writes gets dozens of invitations, mostly from people who sigh up for every single networking site there is.
Apparently Google might be bringing a thingy that would sort of combine them all, similar to Trillian is to messengers.
Personally, I wouldn't wan't friends to know what I write or do in some other web places, hell, my brother occationally reads these forums and I occationally have to filter out some stuff that I wouldn't want my family to know. (sori Make ;) )
I'm there now :s
Peer pressure :mad:
Same here... just, uh, testing the waters as it were...Quote:

Have you searched for friends? Two ways, either import your address book and let it match up email addys, or search by name yourself.
Once you've got some friends, you can view their profiles, send messages, or install numerous applications to interact with them better.
Why not start with the motorsportforums group ( http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5230723306 ) - click the "join this group" link you'll see near the top-right. :)
Well, I started off by searching my university graduating year. The search results came up with about 150 hits, none of whom I recognised :mark:
I then tried to go waaaaay back to my high school graduating year but was limited to searches on only a pre-determined list (in a drop-down menu) of schools in my city. My school wasn't listed (um, perhaps because it no longer exists... :erm: )
I then redirected my search to members who work for the same company as me - keep in mind that my company has ~40,000 employees world wide. The search resulted in about 100 hits. The only one that I recognised is a coworker who works in a cubicle next to me :mark:
Yeah, I'll probably get around to posting my mug on the motorsport group :p :
It's 4 hours since I joined and I have 4 friends. At this rate by this time next week I will have over 160 friends :eek:
Very exciting. Isn't it schmenke!

I thought I might as well join up seeing as how i seem to spend so much time on facebook.
facebook is too cluttered,you guys might want to create a community in orkut
A bit too late for that. Already 44 forumers in facebook. :DQuote:
