yes i have an account on Facebook. but i am not regular on that account. My freinds can catch me at Orkut any time. my 98% friends are connected with Orkut. even i can easily forget my ID and password and i have to check my diary again for id and password for Facebook. so honestly for me Orkut is the best place to meet my friends as well new friends. Orkut is totally different from any other social networking site. easy to serf.

I am not a member on face book. Some people tell me its nice to be a member on facebook but I have never done it. There are lots of places and ways to meet people. Not just on face book. I have made many friends on many different sites. I am real good friends with lots of people and we call each other at times.

I started using facebook a month ago and I have tracked down a bunch of long lost contacts, both personal and professional. Well worth the effort!

I don't have an account with facebook. I think if I were wanting to find someone or meet people it would be the place to do it though. I have a myspace but I never use it so I don't think I would use facebook either. I have thought about it though.

Yes, I have an account with Facebook. I have been there for a few months now. I really enjoy this account because I have been able to get in touch with old friends from highschool and college. I also have current friends and family as contacts. This makes it very easy to stay in touch. In response to your question "Do you think that its a right place to meet people?", I think the answer is NO. The reason for this is that you NEVER know who you are really talking to. I always keep my friends to people that I know. If I receive a request from someone I don't know, I decline every time. I strongly recommend this for you and your safety.

I have been a Facebook member for about a year now. But I've only started becoming active in the site a few months ago when a lot of my friends suddenly started sending me invites to add them. I enjoy the interaction there because I can get instant feedback whenever I post a relevant status message. It's also a great site to keep in touch with friends I haven't seen in a long time. This past week, Facebook has been very instrumental in the calamity relief efforts in the Philippines. A lot of my friends and I were kept updated on news stories which was very useful in mobilizing people to reach out and extend help to those who were badly affected by the typhoon and the floods that followed.

I've been active in Facebook for about 6 months now. So far it's been giving me much satisfaction especially in communication to my local friends. I like the quizzes and applications available there. You can do a lot of things there and that includes gaming etc. I think it is a good place to meet people. You can chat and do fun things.
