Are you addicted to it? :o
It's hilarious getting messages from people you knew in grade 2 :o What's worse is I actually do remember them!!! The other day one girl added me to her list & I first thought :confused: eh..Then realized OHHHHH!!!! WOW!!!!!
If you're on facebook, please let me know. Perhaps KG & I will have more fun playing scrabble with others!!!

apparently my classmates are not of the generation prone to use this. Or perhaps just not comfortable sharing information .
I'm not aware of anyone trying to contact me, but I don't go there (facebook) often.

I do not have any friends from school on Facebook either. (I actually don't have any friends from school but that's another story... ;) ) All my facebook friends are younger than me, except for one. I few 'moms' I know have FB so they can keep track of their adult kids. :rolleyes:
Anyone from TE can facebook me. PM me and I'll tell you my full name if you don't already know it.

I'm on it but am unskilled. Plus, it's blocked at work. Am still figuring the whole thing out, am not finding it to be the most user friendly thing in the world but maybe I'm a spaz?
How do you have people find you if your name changes? I suppose you do your original name then current last name? I found someone I went to h.s. with, she was one of my best friends. She hasn't answered me so maybe she is spaz like me, who knows.

I'm on it too. I'm older than all the rest of you.
I haven't met any of my classmates there though, i'd love to run into some old friends or acquaintances!
I like the scrabble the best; but what's cool is that each of my sons "pokes" me from there every single day. Particularly for the one that just moved out; it's nice to get that "hey; i'm here" from him every day.

Not by much
Yup, I'm on Facebook, too. I have to admit, I'm more addicted to Scrabulous than to facebook itself.
And, yes, teigyr, I also find it not very intuitive. I often wonder if I've successfully installed something, and then don't know where to find it. And I consider myself reasonably computer savvy. So, I guess you are not a spaz!
I have been found by a couple of friends from long ago, and by a few who I had hoped would not go looking....
scrabble, anyone?

How does Scrabble work? Is it real time? Meaning you'd have to be in front of the computer for the whole game? I always play it on my PDA, I love that game!

I'll invite you to a game. You make a move whenever you have time. Then you wait until your partner makes a move. A game can take days or weeks or hours - depending on the two people.

Scrabble sounds like fun! And fortunately, I'll have 3 days off as of tomorrow. Tomorrow I get to go buy a bike...and I'm sure we'll be out and around but I'll have tomorrow p.m. and mon/tues :D
I just started a new game with you, too. New bike? Cool!

Yay, I will check if I have energy after the TE gtg later.
It's an old new bike. Or a new old bike. I found it on the Mixte thread, I go get it tomorrow! I need a bike with fenders for just riding around the town.

I'm on there...PM me if you want to be "friends." I like Facebook because the junk isn't there like on myspace (which I do not have). I use Facebook to keep in touch with family, mostly, but it would always be fun to have a few biking friends on there! :)

I'm on facebook. You can find me on the TE forum group list and add me as a friend if you like. I have to agree with Mimi and LBTC on the Scrabulous thing...be careful. The good thing is that it doesn't work on my work computer, so I have no temptations.:( :(
Having said that, sorry to all my Scrabble partners that you have to wait so long for me to make my moves.:o

Oh, great! Now I'm on Facebook, too! Just one more aspect of my life to keep up in an obsessive kind of way. :p
Last week, I hadn't even heard of Facebook, and now this!

Must not go to facebook...must not go to facebook....
I keep reading about it in newspaper/mag articles, but so far have resisted the temptation. I just don't have time for one more online addiction. Already spend time here, on sailing forums, and lots of emailing. I just can't go there. So I have never even been to the main site.
(But I'm tempted.... If I were single, I would, but have to save some time for DH!)

I just discovered it so I'm fairly new at it too, but the scrabble thing sounds fun.

Thanks Ladies of TE for giving me a reason for a refound addiction!

I'm on the list now too...
God I'm addicted to that thing...
I've joined the FIGHT CLUB - They have a "running" and "cycling" function for training your speed...
Why is it I'm tempted to click CYCLING and RUNNING everyday????
I'm on facebook. Just off to join the TE group.....
