I just spent the last hour looking over old friends pages, just going from friend to friend and looking at pictures and reading a bit. I've had a FB page since I was in college, but had forgotten about it until november last year. Anyway, i have really enjoyed reminiscing a bit this sat. afternoon. Anyone ever just spend time browsing on there? it's nice to reconnect with some of these people. discuss.

Same. I have some old friends from when I was 10-16 who are now playing college sports, training for the Olympics, have a bunch of kids, ect ect. Crazy.
It is definitely nice to keep in touch with them. FB makes that possible.

I met a really good friend on facebook that contacted me when she saw I was a fan of a page about psychedelics.
I haven't met her in real life yet but she is really awesome.
Facbook has some good shit on it and some stupid shit on it.

yeah, me too for the most part, i still like org's like maps and norml on there though, but I tend to post more about freedom than drugs, since that's the real issue.

Meh, all the friends that I actually liked way back in the day I still hang out with, or still talk to them on the phone and shit. Well, there was one dude I was really good friends with and hadn't seen him since I was 14-15 Turned out he was busted with drugs and just got out of rehab was cool to talk to him but we still haven't hungout.
I also met a couple chicks that I went to school with a long ass time ago, and they got really hot. Definitely gonna try and tap a couple of them

But when I put this glass bong on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”[/quote]

I like talking to friends through facebook..... but I dont need a family reunion everyday. There is usually a good reason not to communicate with 3rd cousins.

The only way that could be justified is if they were really good at networking and such and it helps them with their work or whatever.
Other than that....

I'm reconnected with some I lost track of 20 years ago. One at least who was VERY special to me until moves and other relationships drifted us apart.
It's interesting to see how the lives of people you grew up with have changed over the years as you've grown apart.
I even have a few enemies of sorts on mine. Keeping an eye on em.

thats probably the only thing facebook is useful for. keeping in contact with people and finding those lost people.

I said to myself I would not make a facebook account. I hope it stays that way unless I get forced or talked into it someway or another when Im drunk er somethin. even then I probably wont post really. I really dont need another website in my life.

I post very little on mine. It mostly just feeds my nosey nature.
I wonder what it would have been like to have something similar when I was a lot younger.
FB can be cooler in a way when you are my age, 40. There has been a lot of time for history with some of my friends and some friends I would just be stuck wondering whatever came of them not having any other sort of contact in 20 years.
I've got some ex's on mine who were hot when we were young but looking at them now turns any wondering about what if we had stuck together into a whew! Glad I got out when I did.
Then there are a few that go the other way and have me going "that turned into THAT!?"
The biggest problem with my age group is that so many my age and older don't even know how to turn a computer on so they are not there. That is changing more every year though. I added an 83 yo former coworker who I think the world of just earlier this week. She is quite active too.

I log into my facebook in AIM instead of my AIM handle.
I'm on facebook for a large amount of the time, but only because I'm home so much.
I facebook at the college library a lot too since I probably shouldn't be getting on the growery.

Facebook chat killed most other chat clients for the average computer user.
Who is probably using the computer for work/school and facebooking.

i don't have a facebook or a myspace because i don't want to reconnect. i just wanna be left alone and grow weed. i don't even want to really smoke the weed i grow, but i find gardening to be therapeutic.
i want to plant some chili peppers and bell peppers and tomatoes, too; so i can eat them.

yeah, that's the cool thing about FB. Before facebook (and myspace too i suppose) people would move and change numbers and you'd lose touch. Now it seems like all my old friends have pages. So there's really no reason not to remain lifelong friends, unless you consciously make that decision to cut someone out. Plus that shit is on my phone. im not sure how i feel about being so connected. But it is really nice to have that network in place in case I truly ever need the full support of my friends and family.
but it pisses me off that i can't talk about drugs on there!

I don't post about my drug use, but I'm rather obviously pro marijuana legalization.
However strangers also can't view my facebook (did it because I just don't want anywhere I apply to see my shit).

I have mine set to the highest of securities, and I add as few people as possible.
Some bitch was talking about supporting the mosque protesters at ground zero, so I had to cut that bitch.

I've thoroughly responded to all the people supporting the protest shit. I don't really give a fuck if they have a mosque there or not. If they find a terrorist cell growing there take it out, otherwise whatever. I have bigger shit to worry about than Muslims, plus most muslims I've met are pretty chill.

I come off as an asshole, but I just don't have much of a tolerance for what I conceive as bullshit. I can see both sides of a more complex issue, but the mosque ordeal is really cut-and-dry to me. One of this country's founding principles was freedom of religion.
