Just curious,new friend sugesting' s just pop up on my list by meeting them face to face, no other common friends.

At least it was a useful info exchange. I hate it when I buy something & then get pounded with ads for what I won't need to buy again for 10 years.

I joined facebook tears ago when my mom was slowly dying of cancer. It allowed me to keep everyone informed without having to call anyone. Sadly, for me anyway, I've found it's only good for delivering bad news.

Someone told me years ago that you never really become an adult until your parents die.

From my personal journey the past three years I think that's a fact.

I could always call or email and ask my dad for advice or money.

He is not here no more, I guess after the grieving I stepped up to the plate

I'm only 58 and my immediate family are all dead as well as most of my aunts and uncles. The last 15 years have been brutal.

Not on my cell phone, just desktop, sometimes go there after I check email. After I asked her if she had a wall on there, my daughter tipped me off that "Dad, only old people use that anymore". God only knows what the kids are into these days.

naw - i am actually a tech peasant, BUT given how tracking & analytics are geared toward getting people to part with their cash - why not do a little invasive looksey into peoples' lives when they are not actually in cyberspace is not outa the realm of possibilities, or a red line that wouldn't get crossed.

imo.
