The same thing basically happened with my myspace account. I’ve met up with a few friends from days long past, but I really have not checked it in like two months or so. Maybe I should, I know one friend occasionally emails me there…

I think this site has value in the sense that it can help to reconnect with someone you were friends with in the past - and I can see why a person might occasionally visit the site, login, do some searches for friends, etc. On the other hand, I can see how a person could register, search around, and then never return to the site. It will be interesting to see what comes up in the news about Facebook in the future - or if Facebook can figure out how to integrate additional useful features that would bring people back on a more continual basis.

I like it, but there isn't that much interaction with people. Still, it's given me a bit of contact with cousins I normally never see, and I found someone who was a very good friend in high school, and we've reconnected through Facebook, which has been very nice.

I never bothered to check on friends and get connections. At some point, there are just too many social networking sites for my taste. I signed up and have not visited the site since.
