^ Facebook is actually really awesome. But to me, it's something that should be shared to folks I know personally.
I have a few of my aunts and uncles on FB, but my parents? If they ever join, I'm not adding them. Plain and simple.
I actually have two facebook accounts - one for my public persona, one for my more personal self. Weird, but there it is.

I've thought about doing that. I think it makes sense.
I'm pretty sure my parents don't have facebook, seeing as how I have to still help them get their e-mail once a week.

Why let that put you off though? What I've never understood about these "I only add people I know" people is why would you have such a problem with the odd stranger here and there. Those you know in real life, you can contact any time night or day through other means, the whole idea of Facebook is bringing people together, sometimes people you'd usually never have met had it not been for sites like Facebook.there are a couple JUB'ers that I'd add to my FB, but my friends list is almost entirely only people that I've met IRL (except for a couple World of Warcraft guildmates that I've gamed with and talked to on an almost daily basis for over 5 years)
I don't even have a Freakbook account anymore and I'm still horrified by the idea of adding you.![]()

It's not being a snob it's called being careful, and besides 9 times out of 10 these "friends" just want to view/save your pics and then move onto the next person...it's annoying so I say no. I don't just add people that I don't know sorry if it sounds "snobbish" to you but that is MY standing on the whole social network scene. Let me know if/when you get your identity stolen when a bunch of fake accounts start popping up and I'll try to put on a sympathetic face.
