Are you on Facebook? I confess that I'm a little addicted lately to both these social networks!
If you want to friend me, I'm game!!
On Facebook, I'm Melanie Rogers in Mesa, AZ and the picture is of me and my 3 kids.

I have a Facebook account, and I understand how easy it is to get involved with it.

I met another 4 Real Learning Mum on Facebook a few weeks ago and now it is fun to connect and see regular updates about what is happening in our lives...I'm only on Facebook about twice a week and wonder if any other 4 Real mums have Facebook accounts?

I have one, but I don't "get it." I am not sure, what, exactly, I am supposed to be "doing."
I do like to play the games on Webkinz, tho! 
And I have a Homeschools Like Us account, too. But I don't really "get" what I am doing there, either.

I have an account, but don't really get it either. I can see the benefit, but it seems to be a major time sucker to me.
I really just get messages into my email box that so and so wants me to be their "friend", I click "yes" (or occasionally "no" and that is it...

My much-younger sister in law and cousins talked me into having an account. I have been keeping in touch with my distant cousins more regularly since I've been speaking their language,  and my swim team mom friends are on there too. I check in every couple of days if I get an email notification that says I have new flair or someone wrote on my wall.

 I have one. My DH works with college students and it is one of the easiest ways to keep up with them, not to mention the FOCUS events that he is always doing (where is my husband tonight? oh, such and such event... I can never remember what he has when...).
Also, since I'm still pretty young, tons of my high school and college friends are on there, along with other missionaries that I love to keep up with!
It is more confusing these days w/ the "new facebook.

Me! I'm on! Some friends from our time in England got me into it, and most of my "friends" are my teenage daughter's friends. Having just moved, I find it fun to keep up with far-flung IRL friends -- though Lisa's right, it is a time-sucker!
I'm Sally Thomas, if anyone wants to "friend" me. Actually, I think there are lots of Sally Thomases -- I'm in the Memphis, TN network, and in my photo, taken by my 6yo, the top of my head is cut off.

I'm on Facebook, too!
It's basically a huge address book to me. I've used it a few times to set up playdates with friends and to email with some long-lost friends from high school and college. There's no way I can keep up regularly with everyone I'm "friends" with, but it's nice to know that I have their contact info if I want to send them a Christmas card or a birth announcement.
I'm Dawn Elise Sauer...if you want to add me as your friend...

I'm on Facebook. I think you can search by my email - mellyrose at gmail dot com. The pic is of me and my 3 kids.
I connect with lots of family that is far away and friends - both local and far away. I am usually on it once a day or so, and usually update my status regularly.

I'm on it as well as KC Powers. I enjoy seeing the status reports of people. It can be quite humorous.

I use it to keep in touch, organise local activities and sometimes procrastinate.

I am on it! You can search me as Natalia Camilo de Bendele. I love it! I have been able to connect with my high school friends from the Dominican Republic that I haven't heard from in years. It has been fun to form a group and catch up and reminiscence looking at old pictures. And it is an excellent way of procrastinating!

I have an account and just this past week-end, spent a little time on it. It was fun and a fabulous way to avoid doing laundry!
I am Jennifer Dostalik (original, I know). Oh, and I have Fr. Frank Pavone as a friend! How's that for name-dropping? Feel free to add me as a friend, and I'll never get my laundry caught up!

I have an account. I'm Fuzzy Reynolds. Picture is my family on my son's Baptismal day.
Yep, I totally agree. It is perfect for catching up with old friends, as well as avoiding something for a few minutes! I am off to add you ladies!
