That is my exact reason. Don't post much, just check on family and friends I care about. Kind of interesting how much time some of them (that don't have time) spend on those stupid games. They could be on HERE! :) :D

Just saying - beware what you say and what you do.

I must be really out of the loop. I thought something like this would be illegal. Guess not..............

My son works at a local fast food place and an employee got fired due to something he posted on his Facebook status. He came home from work one night and "vented" about his day - seems he forgot that everyone he worked with including the managers and his boss were his Facebook friends.

I have some adult friends who have their bosses on their FB as their friends....gotta say I think I'd draw the line at that - I'd not have my boss as a FB friend. But that's just me.

I told my daughter it would be like emailing one friend on my yahoo account and everyone on my contact list gets to see what I write. Went to my neighbors house today and she asked if I had FB. Again, the shock that I don't and then trying to convince me to get one. This is the story of my life. LOL

I have it, but I'm rarely on there. None of my friends quilt, so I am really addicted to this site.

I have had an account but just can't get into all the crap that's there so I closed it. All the goofy games & people telling the goofiest things to anyone who reads it.

I don't, but DH does. He needed it when he was looking for a job. He's also on several other networky type of things, but nothing as great as this place!!!
