BoLOCs to Face Book

[Bing o]

So, is it worth setting up a Facebook group - or does one exist already?

Could this be my first and last useful contribution? Most likely....

[S Works]

Get it done

[Bing o]

Done!!

Group name is BoLOCs - anyone with a suitable 4mb picture to load, please let me know!!

[subaqua]

LOL - am sure there are plenty of unsuitable pictures out there - Stu was showing a few on Friday

[JTBUSH]

Im "on board", so to speak.

[Altrezia]

Going to look for it and join now..

[Bing o]

I tried sending out invites to all of those on teh BoLOCs list, but I think it went "tits up"....

Still, 5 members and counting!!

Social networking website (facebook.com) good for keeping in touch with old friends, creating groups etc.

and stalking ex girlfriends and school bullies

[Eidhur]

Yep ive just joined !

Its for people who consider themselves too cool and grown up for Myspace, like me!

[Gooby]

Hmm, It wants a legitimate name. Not comfortable with that. What is the chances of ID theft on this thing.

This thing isnt as dumb as myspace is it? Gives me a bl00dy headache reading txt speak

Can i join you BoLOCS on facebook? There are no decent Lotus groups on there anywhere!

[Bing o]

Everyone is welcome, roll up roll up.

Gooby, no-one wants your identity, they'd just get chased by the police everywhere and rubber gloved at customs all the time...

All you need is a valid email adress, the rest you can make up more or less...

For a minute there I read (on the bolocs facebook page) that there was an option to "pork her" next to Julias name!! On second glance it says "poke her" Which is still a thrilling offer but i wonder how many have been on this website before me**? Interesting website!

• No offence meant Julia!

wow someone that shares my thoughts... I'm in the web industry myself, and EVERY one of my mates has myspace & facebook accounts... i still refuse...

1. they are actually all dating sites in disguise (and i don't need help with dating thanks, i'm very happy with Miss Cheeky)
2. why would i want to share all my details / pictures etc with the rest of the weird world & risk identity fraud?
3. i have a million other more important things to do that trawl around looking at what ex birds & mates are up to nowdays
4. i spend too much time in front of a PC as it is
5. I'm too busy keeping up with Pistonheads thanks

Dont get me wrong i understand the functionality & model of facebook & myspace & particularly facebook is impressive from a web perspective, but that's the level i will stop at!

With FB you can only see my info if I let you. I think that's the difference with that and myspace.

Bingo. Make it a closed group. Only those on the BoLOC list allowed, or it'll get out of hand.
