I heard of it thru photobucket but haven't used it (nor do I have a myspace or bebo) will get round to it one day.

Funny we had an email today to do a poll about reclaiming the USA back as a British territory. I've seen it before, but still made me chuckle, not sure what facebook is all about as Neil has signed up to it through some friends at home

My brother is on it, wants me to join.. Seems ok, but then you are faced with "Hi I'm on myspace, bebo, facebook etc etc"
With facebook, you can link to all your friends a whole heap easier. And if you load a pic and "tag" who is in it.....and someone else is friends with a person in that pic, they get notified... i.e. Bee and Sarahbeth in a pic on Bee's profile....Redbedrock knows Sarahbeth, redbedrock would get notified that there was a pic on bee's profile with sarahbeth in it. sorta like 6 degrees of separation.

Right....as far as I can see you have to know either their place of employment, high school or varsity. there doesn't seem to be anyway to search for a name without knowing the other stuff....it's drving me up the wall!!!

Ok somehow I managed to stumble into the right area and just plugged Sarah's name into the search and that worked.

I found it easy for me to put photos on there for my overseas friends to look at.
For finding friends, I just searched for their names, common ones are hard to find though as you have to sift through all the names!
