Just like any site facebook has its perks and its draw backs.

I personally like facebook because it is easier to locate people from your past on it because they do make you register with your full name. At first this kind of freaked me out, I do not want my real name out there, but then I realized that the privacy settings do not allow for all of your info to be out there for everyone to see.
Second I like facebook because of the applications. Sure I have far too many, but I have met some really great people through the applications and they give me something to do when I am bored at work. hah. I love the TV triva.
And because facebook is is a 100% open development system you can also make your own apps if you feel so inclinded.
I also appreciate the mini feeds because with over 300 people on my friends list I do not have time to check everyone, or even my closest friends everyday.

As a whole I really do enjoy my facebook account, and now myspace is starting to look more like it with the mini feeds that let you know when your friends have updated their pages, if only myspace would bring back the games!! Until then I will play games on facebook.
