At my wife's pestering, I signed up about two weeks ago, thinking this would be stupid. I've since been pleasantly surprised.
I haven't found any long lost friends yet, but I am keeping more up on what is going on in my and my wife's family. My mother passed away last year. She always kept me up-to-date on the rest of the family, so with her gone, I've tried to do better at calling and emailing my 9 siblings to keep up on things. I've done better, but still have a hard time staying connected, especially since they are all out west and I'm in MN.
Facebook allows me to see glimpses into their lives, and keep a tab on what they are up to. I'm sold on it.
