i shouldn't really disparage facebook, it just seems that among younger people especially it is more of a popularity contest than anything else, i guess i object to the "friends", maybe if they had other categories, acquaintances, associates it would seem more realistic

I'm 49.

Soz, is there a Facebook thread around here? Or how do I find Atookians there?

Not that I have time for a new hobby, but I'm interested.

I just keep seeing reference.

The people who sent me friend invites used their real names so I think you need to know that. Once you do, you can just look 'em up.

That includes A2K people btw -- I've decided I want to maintain a bright shining line, worlds collide and all that, so if you're one of the people who sent me a friend invitation and I haven't responded, it's not personal! I might start a separate sozobe (or something similar) Facebook account though because it sounds like a lot is going on there amongst A2K'ers...


Yeah... We are all talking about how you rejected us! Razz

Mac - you can search "groups" for A2K. Some of us are in that group.

I share Dadpad's age and, like Phoenix, my next birthday will be one of those 'momentous' ones for me.

I think the reason I don't enjoy facebook is because I've added too many people, so my news feed is really boring. I use it more for spying on people I used to hate a school because anyone I actually LIKE I hang around with or am in contact with without the use of facebook.

I'm 28. I'd say the most active users are typically middle-aged and above, while a lot of our more casual users and guests tend to be younger (mainly because internet traffic overall tends to be younger).

I follow a variety of demographic surveys on a2k users, they aren't usually very accurate, and I have no idea how they get their data sometimes but here's one you might find interesting. Take it with a grain of salt because it's only trying to measure the US users, and is not very accurate at that (e.g. I know that the total US users they report for able2know is less than 30% of the real number).

I believe the data comes from ISPs for this one.

66, as of last September. I have a facebook and a myspace account. I have ignored facebook for some months, but logged on yesterday. I expect to check in a bit more often, but prefer not to play the silly games of sending flowers and cups of coffee. Myspace, I went on because a friend was on there. He has since dropped out.

First, Dick, i am free to respond to any thread i see. Second, Clown, i don't much interest in responding to you since you chose to gratuitously insult me. Third, your command of standard English continues to suck. That's not a problem for me, but it does explain to a certain extent the contempt i entertain for you. That, and your constant harping on how unfair it is that you should suffer for your failure to govern your temper.

I gratuituously insulted you?

YOU started off with some sarcasm in this thread. "Chronilogical age or mental age?" Were you trying to imply that I'm stupid or something?

Second, grammar nazi, I don't give a shit about standard English. Just cuz you have a good command of it don't make you all that. You only harp on ppl's text message style of writing because you outlived your own time so you bitch about shit you can't even read.

It ain't the 50's anymore. Either adapt to change or jump off the bridge.
