Facebook seems to have a bigger following that myspace did. It was more for the younger crowd. Facebook was called by some the myspace for grown ups and is used by so many different people. It’s how I tend to keep up with my best friend, who is often busy and have talked to people I normally wouldn’t see again in this life or would only say “hello” to because of distance or time.
Call me crazy, but when I find someone, I like to talk directly to them through me email account, and not through some intermediary. What happens is Facebook ever goes belly up? All of your messages will go poof!
