Default Facebook

I've heard that Facebook is probably going to die away because a lot of people are getting rid of their accounts or not going on as much anymore because they're getting worried that it's not safe because they keep changing their privacy features. I think it would be sad if Facebook dies, because it is safe if you aren't putting too much information about yourself or adding total strangers as friends, and it's fun. I don't have lots of people on my friends list, but I like posting pictures and I love playing the games.

So what does everyone think, do you like Facebook? Do you think the Facebook fad is over?

I think facebook is good for keeping in touch with people, and if you don't give away too much information then it is pretty safe. I don't think the facebook fad is over, everyone I know is obsessed with it. I enjoy it, but I am not overly crazy about it.

I'm obsessive with my privacy and I just wouldn't feel safe on Facebook. I hope it goes away!!!

Honestly... I really don't have time for facebook! Between school, dance, my job, IDM and dance.net.....
However, my mum has found facebook really great because she went to boarding school with people from all over the place and she is now able to catch up with friends she hasn't seen or heard of for years

I love Facebook its class! All my friends are on it. I find it good to catch up with them during the Summer holidays or if you need help with homeowrk you can ask them on Facebook and its cool the way you can uload pics and comment other people's status and all! Hope it dosent die away because i love it. altough i have bebo aswell.

In the beginning I thought it was confusing as well, but now I'm more used to it.

Me too, I remember not liking that on everyone's wall, the statuses are mixed up with the comments other people write on their wall. Now I don't know why that bothered me so much.

I love Facebook.
You get to stay in contact with People you may never see again.
And I love talking to the IDMer's on there as well.
But I have my Account set to something where only my Friends can look at it and not onlookers.
But Facebook is something I will not live without because now that I am homeschooled I don't get to see my friends from elemantry School that much and I can still keep in contact with them and chat away with them and plan dates to hang out with them.
Facebook is something where you can see your Friends ALL the time and not just one day out of the year.
