Im just wondering how many people of the younger crowd have a facebook. I do and I'm a member of the HCM group. Ben Johnson, Michigan. If anyone wants to talk shoot me a friend request and/or message! See ya there!

How young is younger? The New York Times just ran an article about how Facebook is now for the over 40 set and that's it's largest growing segment. I know this personally because several of my aunts and other relatives just got on FB recently. Mostly to keep in touch with their kids, who are now in their 30's!

Me? I'm 40 and on Facebook.

I have a Facebook account, and I am posting a recent Time article which is hilarious about why Facebook has been taken over by old fogies like me!

Well, I'm an old fogy for sure, but I love Facebook. I chatted until after midnight last night with someone I have not heard a word about or from since 1965. Now that's truly an old fogy!

Cynthia, that article is hilarious because it's so true! Needed a good chuckle on a Tuesday morning after a 3-day weekend!

I guess Im all alone here....but I do not. I have two teenagers that do and they informed me that their friends who have parents that do have accounts on there are called "creepers"....sorry
Besides, Im a little leary about putting anything personal where anyone can see and or abuse it.

Facebook has privacy settings so that you can block varying levels of people from seeing your profile. Some people leave them open to the public and some people only let people they've added see them (for example, even though A. and I are both on FB, I wouldn't know it unless she added me as a Friend). You can do this on a granular level as well so that certain parts of FB only appear to certain groups, too.

Have you talked to your kids about their privacy settings and what they share?

Also, it is your choice to share or not share. You don't have to enter your b'day or relationship status or tell anyone where you are or anything. I have several friends who only use it like a fancy address book and to be polite. They never post any status messages, just friend people.

FB is whatever you make of it.

It's great for sharing photos without using email. Mine is full of my dogs, grandkids and travels.

I have facebook also. I have kids also, I have not added them as "friends" so they can keep their privacy also. There is a lot of good networking on facebook, just like here. I always feel the more knowledge the better!
(I am not old, as least I hope not :)

Face Book, My Space and AARP here. Not old, but not quite as young as I once was.

mike.dmcbride on both FB and MS. Maybe they should merge into Space My Face Book :rolleyes:
