Me too.

I use facebook for friends and family.

Yes, I've been on FB a couple years now ... nice way to keep up with family and friends. Do block all games from those who are interested in them. Also Hide certain relatives posts, but still can go to their wall to find out what they are up to these days or contact if needed. This past year have also "like" certain quilting-related businesses and couple pet organizations.

I love FB...we've moved several times and have friends and family in several states. Love the quilting friends and sites too!

I use it but really only to keep track of family and close friends. Don't do the games and don't use it much to track businesses.

Email has become a dinosaur already. My DD posted pics of the new baby on Facebook on day two after her birth and still hasn't found the time to send any to my email. I go to Facebook to keep up with the family but I'm slow to learn all the other networking possibilities and can't find groups of my interests to save my soul. Need to take lessons from my 17 YO. daughter me thinks!!

I love facebook. my grandkids set me up at Thanksgiving a few years ago and we all talk together, share photos and just keep in touch. I have reconnected with some school friends, and some past neighbors and past Church friends. I love it.

I use it, but seldom look at it. I keep in touch w/ e-mail or phone...can't stand all the games and the news about people I never heard of. Guess I should quit it, but I like the disease support groups I belong to (Carcinoid and Sjogrens)

I haven't been back to Facebook since we got a virus that way and it cost a lot to have our computer repaired.
