With a little persistence, I (like to think I) helped Wright State get on www.thefacebook.com

It is as addicting as people from other schools (UC, BGSU) told me. I have been finding people for hours. Any current college student on it? If so, Facebook me!

Great...now you will spend all of your time that you used to do things that were fun browsing the facebook. Pretty soon you will only sub-conciously log in and spend half an hour on the website whenever you turn on your computer. You will tell yourself it is stupid, but continue to log in...happens to everyone.

It's basically one of these friend network things, like friendster.com. Thefacebook.com is only for college students, who can then look at other people with their interests, etc. It's basically an online stalking website when it comes down to it.

Just like college.

I'm on it. It was a big thing everybody talked about when we first got on it, but now its something that you happen to check every once in a while or when you get a random friend invite.

Still a great site. On a personal note, I started the "Fuck the Rutgers Business School" group, and its grown to something like 80 members. One of my finer collegiate accomplishments.

My school is on the College Facebook, but not the Facebook. I had no idea there was a difference, but apparently my school found a way to mess it up.

edit- I stand corrected. My school was just added to this Facebook.

i don't know, i just created my profile last night when we got it, and it's cool because everything on my page is clickable. so anything i have written, if i click it, like if i click one of my interests "basketball", i can click and it will list everyone who has the same interest.

just neat little things like that. and then you can add groups, not limited to any number and those are pretty fun. i spent a few hours just browsing friends and finding people from my old high school who are at different schools, etc. nice little way to keep in touch with some people..

Does it have a clickable section for rounding up a posse and getting your ass kicked?

Simmer down, shortstuff.

Let's see, I've recently retold the story about how I almost severed my penis. Did I tell the one about getting in the middle of a gang shootout with police in San Francisco?

I didn't drink much in college or make/accept challeges to duel, so I don't have that many classic stories. My motto was - you're going to law school, so the fewer stories, the better.

Well, stupid Pumpy had to go and graduate 3 years ago, so I don't get to play with Facebook... unless my school gives e-mail addresses to alumni. I might have to check that.

Nah.

Considering that I checked my e-mail three times in my five years of college, it would be a minor miracle if I remembered the password that the university assigned to me.

Just added them in the suggestions area. http://wright.thefacebook.com/contact.php Do it yourself, the more times your school is suggested, the more likely it will be added soon.

Yup, looked it up, and it seems I've found you.
