emm said: i'm a little weird about facebook
i'm not keen on how i can see pictures from people that i'm not friends with merely when a common friend posts about them. that shit should be private! consequently i'm leery about org life/nonorg life colliding i'll just go be like howard hughs over here in the corner now i can understand that, for a long time i didn't have anyone from the org on my myspace or facebook pages...but now...well, i have some cool people from here as friends on my pages. you just have to choose the people carefully. | |

ocean said: ZombieKitten said: yeah and once they find you, they can ignore you all over again! actually I just checked, you can have any name you want, and optionally your real name (not displayed) only for those who know it and are looking for you. How do u do that..I wannted ocean showing you have to go to settings and where it says name, change it you might need 2 parts to the name | |

I think most do, since facebook is basically just a way for people from high school to find you They already found me on classmates.com | |

you can do a fake name it has to comprise of 2 parts though, faux first name and faux last name you could be Heartbeat Ocean | |

Is that all there is to it? I can't figure out what all the hoopla is about Every time I go to a MYSPACE page it's so boring. No discussions or anything, just people saying "hey how's it going? what's up? good to see you" is there something I'm missing? | |

emm said: i'm leery about org life/nonorg life colliding
I am very leery about this. I was a member of a very interesting discussion board once, until they required that people use their real names. If anyone does a google search on my name now, my comments come up on that site. And another one I wanted to join recently told me "it's not cool to use a fake name" So I'm like...some trivial website is telling me I'm not cool to use my real name when it REALLY crosses my boundaries to put my name out for THE WHOLE WORLD to see it and to monitor my thoughts and online activities! And once things get out into cyberspace, it is almost impossible to get them back. | |

i don't like to "chat" with people, that's why i have never entered the chat here on prince.org. i use msn now and then to talk to family in brazil and that's it. so a chat function on a social network doesn't do it for me. | |
