I have all three ::lol:: , and I'm old enough to be Jezi's granny. ::lol::

The only thing worthwhile on my Facebook is link to friend's pages - I tend to mainly ignore my account.

The Bebo thing started as a joke, for me, I mean, I might log in once a year - if that.

I do like to dabble in MySpace, though (now, Jezi, you know one person!), but mainly to read the bulletins posted by all sorts of different people, and occasionally send messages.

GG you're so not old enough to be my granny!!! My grans are old.

I probably know more people with myspace than I realise but I mean more people don't speak about it and I don't get bombarded with requests to join it like I did through friends from FB and bebo.

Facebook is so last year!

Well, for me it was.

I cold turkeyed on New Year's Day. It was my best resolution, as it was taking up too much time.

John, you've got me confused. I thought you were Asian. I must concentrate more. :oops:

Bagpuss, I had no idea you were so old! Have you tried "Just for men"? I think you'd be a catch. ;)

CT - I used to be totally addicted to the internet, but have got it back under some sort of control now. As for the networking sites - not knowing that Friends Reunited has a bad rep for breaking up marriages :eek: I have used it to get in touch with old friends from when I was growing up in Belfast. I like MySpace for the music stuff and all the bulletins (like GG). Facebook isn't addictive to me, but it can be interesting.

Actually I already have four (I've just discovered)... but two are relatives (daughter and cousin) so I guess I'm still waiting to fill the postion of third friend? ;)

In some ways, I prefer MySpace but I can't use my default passwords there and its forever asking me to enter one I can never remember... which usually means I end up frustrated and not bothering.

Facebook is good, but I delete all the silly Apps and Widgets ruthlessly.

Anyone want to link up (or just be nosey) I'm here:

John's Facebook

PS. Just let me know your 'handle' on here, I don't add any old riff raff you know ;)



you've got a daughter?

John, I think we need to hear all about you-these snippets are not enough!

Yes, even I'm on FB now.


Have just seen your profile in the attachment. ::lol:: ::lol::

Want another laugh? I thought it might be you I was adding on FB in the past, but it turned out to be an equally intelligent, witty, charming, and stunning male from BBfans. ::lol::

I have a guilty secret - another one.

Years ago, I wanted to have a nice nosey look around Friends Reunited, but in order to do that, they required that I register.

So I made up a name, and a school, and a year.

They regularly e-mail to tell me some more of my friends have turned up.

Meanwhile, I often wonder if people at that school reunion say 'Do you remember her? I can't place her at all'.

I guess it was a mean and nasty thing to do, but somehow, I doubt that I'm the only 'phantom' schoolmate, on that site.

Hehe, GG - you're probs right about that.

One of the nice things I found on Friends Reunited was photos of my old grammar school which included photos of my late (and much missed) Uncle from when he was Head Boy of the school. I emailed the classmate of his who had posted the photos to let him know how chuffed I had been to see them, and had a couple of lovely replies from him which told me anecdotes about my Uncle from his school days.
