Also, what's in it for Facebook? They've taken no money off me, I've seen no adverts, so what revenue stream do they have?
I've been caught by facebook in the past week, but there is advertising.... and plenty of it just it is done in a relatively unobtrusive way. Are you running some kind of adblocker?
I must say that I was quite anti-facebook given how many other now defunct social networks I've been a member of in the past but this one at least lets me keep in passing contact with a few freinds who live in different bits of the UK who I wouldn't /normally/ phone/contact and see what they are up to. Perhaps it helps relieve the guilt complex of not keeping in touch with friends? although I must say it has been slightly useful so far for me just not so useful for people who I am in contact with every few days or so but the people who you only think of rarely.
