I said, "Can you name ten friends without looking at your profile?" He couldn't.



I was left wonderin' - what's the point in havin' 697 'friends' on fbook? Do people really think more friends = most popular?

I can see if he was promoting something and was using fbook as a marketing tool...but that's not the case.
I have close to 2000 on my personal /photography/ music one. I probably know personally about 50 or 60 local people maybe more, and talk to maybe roughly 1 to 200 of the rest of them on a regular basis.
