Sorry mate, you won't see a response from me, as if there is a Tarjak on any of those sites it's certainly not me. Never found a need or the time to get into it.:88)

As far as the "social" networking sites go, well i'm an unsociable sod and don't see anything there that interests me at all.

You have PM TarJak, there are 22 of you listed in Australia!:lol:

Sure, I'd hidden it after the initial playing around with it, but I've opened it up so anyone can join - just search for subsim and it should show up now.

Which conclusively proves that Oberon lacks "real" friends

(...yes, that will be in the next issue of Pravda)

Anyway, what do you people do in Facebook anyway? I couldn't find a single usable purpose for it

To quote one of my (real and facebook) friends from the other thread on facebook, who put it better than I could:

I know Lesrae in real life and, like me, he uses it to keep track of a scattered, disparate array of very good old friends.

Identity theft blah de blah: Like all technology, if you don't know how to use it, it can be dangerous. When you sign up, you can decide levels of privacy for all manner of things, to the extent that only your friends would be aware you'd even signed up. If you don't take the time to configure those things to your liking then no; they won't be configured to your liking. Despite all the security threats associated with going online at all, you still do, because you take the time to address those issues.

Generic religious fear: You're on your own with that.

A good friend of mine once told me he sometimes wishes that there was a bit of the net left for us geeks; somewhere that wasn't over-crowded with the general populous. Facebook isn't that, and that's what makes it so ubiquitous - I want to see my friends' photos, know how their kids are getting along, keep in touch with people I don't see so regularly, etc - what better way?

I joined and added you just to see what you were going to do to all of us...
