Facebook is all about getting laid.

Given that observation, I may have to open up a Facebook account.....er, I would if I were a LOT younger!

OT:

<Facebook is all about getting laid>

Hmmm... Well, at 34, I think facebook is mostly about stay-at-home moms telling all of their friends at once what they've done that day and/or what their children said. I personally like facebook so that when I see people, I can skip asking them what they've been doing the last week/month because I know via facebook. Then, I can talk to them about something more interesting.

I think it's a bit risky for people to use facebook to get laid as spurned lovers can pretty easily make your life hell by posting mean things to your wall or their own wall.

I think twitter is more readily available for that purpose as you don't have to post your real name and I believe you can join groups towards that purpose. Though, I'm not proficient with twitter...

Thanks,

cwillyg

re Facebook:
Facebook is all about getting laid. A just saw an article that discusses a survey which found that 11% of facebook users have had sex with someone they met through facebook.

I thought that percentage must be higher. That means 89% of the Facebook users are rather frustrated.
