Social Networking (Facebook, MySpace, etc)

I'm on Facebook as well. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#/profile.php?id=528228230&ref=name

And me

Lovin that there are lots of UKYs on facebook! Its really lovely to actually put faces to the names

I changed my username on here, was previously pooky27.  Anyhoo, I move to London in 2 weeks(!!) so would love to get to know more people in the area!  My facebook link is : http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=606100322&ref=profile

To Facebook or not to Facebook - that is the question?

I've had several people wanting me to join, but I'm a bit of a Luddite and just think - well what do I DO with Facebook exactly?  Still it'd be nice to see people's photos & such.

Hmmmmm.  I'm so wordy, not very photography, and like I need another thing to waste time online with?

I absolutely *love* facebook.  Honestly, it works much much better for me than Live Journal.  LJ for keeping in touch with my UK friends, US friends and beyond.  Mrs. R if you join up and don't like it you can always delete your account.  I have a feeling that you will like it, though.

Wait, is this a different UK-Y group than the one I'm on? 


BTW, if anyone wants to add me, my facebook username is beccajanestclair

Yay for deciding to go with beccajanestclair!  My username is saira.longden, in case anyone's interested   

I was skeptical about Facebook at first, but I really love it.  I've been able to re-establish contact with some people I haven't seen in years, and I feel really close to them.  Plus, since my friends are scattered all over the world, it's the only thing that holds us all together.  I agree with Andee, Mrs R, you should give it a try.

Yeah, I figured it was the easiest, and it matches the blog

Mrs R, I was like you for a long time-until a few months ago.  I had a high school friend contact me through Classmates, and ask if I was on Facebook.  Then two friends that I email asked the same thing.  I thought, what the heck, and joined.  I had been on it about two years ago, but didn't see the point and deleted my account.
I'm hooked now!  I've been in touch with people that I never thought I would be able to locate.  As a result I've renewed friendships long dormant.  I'm selective about who becomes my friend though...for me it is quality rather than quantity.  There are games on there as well. I have friends that are heavily into FarmTown and Bejewelled.  
While I have UK-Y listed as one of my pages, I do not want to give my UK-Y name on Facebook.  It's just me being weird, but I don't want to reveal TOO much information.  While I have pictures of my girls up, I don't use their names...just the first letter of their name.

I was the same, I think a lot of Facebook is "oooh look how many friends I have" which is just pathetic imo , but at the same time I have got in contact with people who's presence I was missing, as long as you're selective about your friends and what info you share, facbook is a good tool.

are you going to do it?

I was really anti-facebook for a long time.  I never used MySpace and I liked hanging out on LJ....but then I decided to give it a go, and I like it way better than MySpace! I've found so many old friends from HS who I never thought I'd hear from again, people from my old church in NJ....and Tim's sister and I got close via Facebook before she and I even met!

You should join up! Anyway, you can catch up on what everyone you know is doing in about 5 minutes!  You don't need to spend much time on there if you have other stuff to do. Try it and see!

'Tis done.  I've friended a number of folks, but if you're not among them & would perhaps like to be, please send me a PM.
