    Indeed! To me FB is one of the most easiest way of communication between me and my family in Davao. Its just majority of my siblings are on it and they can easily update me with my daughter's achievement at school etc. I guess as you say, use it the wrong way then its the worst thing ever invented.

    It's been invaluable for me to keep in touch with my wife.

    I make a rule not to put stuff on it I don't want people knowing.... I never air my dirty washing in public so to speak.

    I have a facebook account but do not use it a lot. I am not in to advertising my life on there to the world. The settings are a right pain as well.

    Too much showing off on Facebook, don't use it because it's not safe!

    I should add to my previous post, that if it hadn't been for facebook I would never have kept up my chats with Harlene. Which means I would never have got married to her and never have a baby on the way.....

    Facebook is a safe as you make it and if you want to show off then do, if you don't then don't....
    I have added a couple of people from here that asked a while ago that want to chat about my experience in getting married in Philippines, I'm happy to help if I can... I've also added people from a running forum I am a member off, so it is good for all sorts other than just a tool to keep in touch with old, current and new friends or family. Plus I get to beat everyone at some of the games lol

    But it's like everything in life, some people love certain things and others hate them....

    Very easy Michael,basically set up a Facebook account and you can choose how public you want to be.At first it might be best to make it virtually private,then you can choose what friends and relatives you choose to add.It's really simple-if you don't get into it you can simply de-activate your account.
    It's not the monster portrayed on here and i would not be without it.
