Hi Ellen,
Thanks for trying to help, but I'm still clear as mud with my 2 questions. On the FAQ page, it appears that Friends and Contacts are 2 different functions. I am able to add a contact, but in the old board when you clicked on their profile, their list of bookmarks became available for my viewing. That list is no longer on the profile page that I can see. I don't use a PDA, just good old fashioned computer. Here is what I found in the FAQ page:
"Friends and Contacts
What is the difference between a friend and a contact?
A friendship is a mutual, two-way relationship between two users. It is initiated by one user and accepted by the other.
A contact is a one-way friendship. This could be where the other person does not accept the friendship, a friendship request is pending, or you do not wish to be friends at this time but want to show them as a contact only.
I don't understand what one does and the other doesn't, or the benefit of one over the other. If you or anyone else has more insight to offer I'd appreciate it. And then again, maybe I'm overthinking this, like I do everything.
Thanks for answering.
Susan
