Facebook

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>I've had a facebook since freshmen year and I think it's really gone down. I have around 800 friends (all from my network/HS/similar networks) and i barely talk to anyone on it anymore. There's times I will have 100 friends on chat and i'll only talk to 2 or 3 if that lol. It seems like facebook is getting cluttered and becoming another myspace LOL.
So, I think I will most likely delete my page by graduation.. Maybe make a new one for the new people I meet while in college. </p>

<p>What do you CCers plan on doing with your facebook after graduation??</p>

<p>I only have about 260 friends on Facebook, and I only accept people I know. I like it as a way of associating and keeping up with people who I don't see very often. I'll keep the same page after graduation as a way of staying in touch with all of my high school classmates and making new college friends.</p>

<p>My myspace was deleted long ago...</p>

<p>I quite like facebook. For informal messages people seem to check it more often than e-mail, more over you don't need a separate address. Just your name. So as an informal messaging platform I think it's brilliant. Then for keeping up w/ people it is quite nice. Overall I think it is a great tool - if you use it correctly.</p>

<p>I only 'befriend' people I know and have actually met. Which seems like a foreign concept to some.</p>

<p>I'll be keeping the same profile come graduation.</p>

<p>i will keep my facebook, i mostly use facebook for family friends and religious things, some regular friends.</p>

5

<p>I have about 115 friends on Facebook but I don't add just anyone, I have to know them.</p>

<p>Myspace I have well over 200 and most I don't ever talk with.</p>

6

<p>Haha, I have less than 20 friends and I never use it. But I know all of my friends, and talk to them in person all the time.</p>

7

<p>really? in my city, myspace is dying and facebook is growing.</p>

8

<p>Myspace is dead. Although facebook is looking pretty bad with all these new updates.</p>

<p>yeah, to me and all of my friends myspace died out around freshmen/beginning of sophomore year. Everybody hopped on facebook and now, to me, it's JUST like myspace was.
I think my problem was adding to many people/accepting request from people i didn't know at all. i only know personally maybe 100-200 of my friends. i know OF like 300 others and i don't know the rest at all lol.
I think what I'll do is just make a new page and marry my old page, then on my old page put "John wants you to add his new page if you plan on having any contact with him after highschool" -seems like that will cut down my friends significantly.</p>

<p>there should be a CC group or something on facebook so we could all talk on there! that seems like a good idea lol</p>

10

<p>um...j.marc, we've had a group for a loooong time....</p>

11

<p>are you serious?? well what is it then lol
i'm all out of the loop. i guess it's because i just got on these forums.</p>

12

<p>nvm, found it. wow..</p>

13

<p>I have around 180 friends right now, around 10-30 are connected at any given time.</p>

<p>I know 95% of them, so if I do talk to them is about something we can both talk to.</p>

<p>Not just like "Hey, I rarely talk to u, let's make conversation!"</p>

14

<p>i like facebook way better then myspace!!!</p>

15

<p>It's good for communication. I get assigned a physics project with somebody I don't know and it's much easier to get ahold of him or her.</p>

<p>Beyond that, I don't see how people spend 5/6+ hours doing who knows what on it.</p>

<p>I wouldn't say that it's dropped down to the level of MySpace...yet.</p>

16

<p>Facebook really comes in handy when I'm working on projects with other people. Most of the Friends I have on Facebook are from school projects. Other than this, I do nothing on Facebook.</p>

17

<p>ew i just got the new face book layout its horrible!</p>

18

<p>I think facebook is efficent. By the time I graduate from high school ( class of 2010) I may have a facebook or which ever website that is more popular and efficent at that time. I don't think I would have a problem adding random people though.</p>

19

<p>facebook got soooo ugly. the last one sucked too, but now THIS?! i STILL miss the old one :(</p>

<p>What happened to the newsfeed??!! It looks so bland and text-heavy.</p>
