Potluck #55 - Facebook

I had been using Facebook for just about a month when this Potluck exercise came up. I've already made use of many of the features mentioned, such as sending and receiving Flair and finding friends. I joined because 2 friends from college sent me a request. I was hesitant because I previously had a myspace page which I found cumbersome and not worth the effort. I didn't get much response. However, I've found Facebook to be much, much easier to use. And more importantly, it's amazing how many people I am reconnecting with. It searches your yahoo email address book and finds those people on facebook. I've found old college friends and cousins who live out of state. It's easy to maintain (no "pimping" needed) and easy to use. I love it.
