I disagree! It's perfect for me, i can slag fuck out of people i know without leaving the comfort of my living room! It can be done by text but doesnt have the same coverage
I used to hate even the idea of fb, the trick is just add people you know in real life and are prepared to talk to now. too many people add other's they used to know and once met somewhere which is daft. When i joined i had people try to add me who i went to school with, i didnt like them then so why would i wanna involve them now?
