I do as and when i login to facebook and first see whether any of my friends have a birthday on that date. If yes, the first thing i always do is wish him or her, A very happy birthday. I am sure many of you do that do. It is a small work when considering the amount of time we waste daily. I have many friends and i dont like to forget me. I always like to be in a crowd of friends having fun and chatting a lot. My weekends are always packed with some of my friend. I take time to choose my friend but if i do i stick to them all my life. Share your thoughts on the friends you have in facebook and do you do the same.

Yeah! everytime I log in to facebook I usually watch whose birthday is coming since I love to greet them a happy bday. For me greeting them is a simple way to show my gratitude for giving me the opportunity to be part of their lives.

I do wish my friends or colleagues happy birthday on facebook especially those who are too far from me to ring or to text. I think facebook is a helpful tool to send your old friends or classmates messages and greetings. And it's not expensive too. :)

Even if they have become friends via playing some of the Games I have, or people I really know, or have gotten to know and can truly consider Friends, I do take the time if I get on for that day and wish them a Happy Birthday. It is one way to let them know I am thinking about them and wishing them the Best, and know in turn it helps make their day to where they will think of me often as well.

I try to make the effort to wish someone a happy birthday when I can, even if i don't know them that well, as it doesn't take long to do, and it could make all the difference to that person when they log on and see your message.

Funny I read this now, cause I just did this a minute ago.^_^ I saw that there was a notification for friends' birthdays there so I greeted those celebrants today as well as the one who will celebrate her birthday tomorrow. I do often greet those birthday celebrants on facebook since its the only way that I could contact them. I do have a lot of friends but I dont have their cellphone numbers so its best to find another way to communicate that I wish them well on their days.^_^

Hello MyLotters,
I greet everyone of those who have birthdays at FaceBook. Even foreigners who just are included in my list of friends I have never met. They appreciate it very much. Probably they get a smile all the time cuz I always greet them with "Happy BEERthday" or "Happy BURPday". It's fun and feels good to greet someone on his or her birthday.

Yeah, sure why not? They are your friends who probably would love for someone to just remember that this was the best day of their life...The Day they were BORN!

I rarely visit facebook, however, when i receive mails from facebook reminder regarding this week's birthday, i log on into facebook and greet all of them. It saves time and at the same time i am able to greet all.

Wow, I just said this on another discussion. This is one of the reasons I go on Facebook, to see if anyone's having a birthday. I used to not go on Facebook everyday. Then one day I got on Facebook to look at a message and there was someone's birthday noted in the upper right hand corner! 
I said to myself, "I probably missed somebody's birthday. I can't do that because they send me birthday greetings." So from now on, I go on Facebook every day and look for birthdays first.

Yes, I always give birthday greetings to my friends on facebook. I think its a very nice thing to do. I always enjoy it when they give me birthday greetings as well. I also, congradulate them if they post an achievement that they are proud of such as passing an exam, graduating, getting a job, something like that. I always try to be upbeat and positive to my friends.

I love to greet people during his/her birthday. Yes, as you've said once I login to facebook I usually check first the birthday corner, whether my friend's birthday today. I love leaving simple messages in their wall and especially wishing them a very HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
