I found a new use for FB this week.

My mother is very ill. I don't keep much in touch with her cousins and good friend, but I know who they are.

I figured folks would want to know about her condition. I was able to message one of the cousins, and the daughter of a very good friend of hers easily through my mom's friend list, and get the word out that way. This saved me having to dig out my address book. Some of these people I don't even have contacts for. Folks were very appreciative that I took the time out to contact them, and FB made it very easy to do.
