Originally Posted By MissCandice I love me my Facebook. I am just below 200 for friends. I think I have 2 "mob wars" friends but everyone else I know, except for the husband of my supervisor. He is on there more than she is so if I desperatly need to get a hold of her I know I can shoot him a message. The other day some guy requested to be friends and in his message he asked if I was the Candice that used to work at AAA. I had no clue who he was and had to ask someone else I used to work with at AAA who he was. Turns out we worked together all the time and were even on a committee together at one point. I had totally forgotten about him, oops! Facebook, I love it so.
Originally Posted By LuLu I have over 100, but I never do anything on FB any more! Once in a while I'll message a friend, but I could email instead. I dunno. Gotta get back in the swing of things... Which for me is just checking the updates and occasionally commenting. A quiz once in a while.
Originally Posted By FiveBearRugs It used to be Mob Wars for me, until I got tired of that... now it's Metropolis (Sim City), chatting with people, making quizzes (I have to finish my Fawlty Towers quiz!) and just making comments on various things. In the case of the latter...I'm trying to curb that habit since I'm overdoing it...thank goodness you can delete what you write! I also got started on Farm Town.

Except for Carl and quite a large # of the LPers, I've met everyone I have on facebook at least once live & in person. LPers are the only ones that I will automatically add - after all, you can never have too many axe murderers as friends!

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I have 164 friends, and would like to cut that down a little bit - there are some who don't contact me or reply to contact and I'd rather not have them see what I'm doing all the time (since I'm, uh, rather addicted). The majority of my friends are family, school friends and LPers.
Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD I love FB. I am not sure how many friends I have but I know it is over 100. I have about 15 LP friends. I have quite a few relatives and friends I don't get to see very often so this gives us a chance to keep up. I also have quite a few from college and high school. Since I do put a lot of pictures and stuff on my kids, I try and be a little pickier on just who is my friend on FB. I am addicted to Farm Town and Bejeweled Blitz. I also have a SuperPoke pet and play lots of Word Twist. Farkle is also fun.

That exchange and discussions here and elsewhere about "inactive" friends came together in my head, and I had a sudden revelation: The big difference between on-line and off-line friendships is that there are no companionable silences on-line. The thing is that my very best off-line friends are people I can be silent with. We may take a hike, or have a meal, or watch TV, together, saying very little. And I really enjoy that. There's no real on-line equivalent to that, so far as I can tell. So, is it just me? Or have I stumbled onto something significant here?

Lol I like FB to see what people are up to, share some of my thoughts and see what reactions come back. take some quizes. Follow the white house. Lobby and campaign on issues. Share photos. Play games. I do like it very much. And it makes it sooo much easier to stay in touch.
