I expect not otherwise you would have found that it does work, I'm not on faceache. But to be honest it's not worth the waste of a mouse click, just like faceache in general. -- Cheers Dave. |

Quite a few online suppliers are snuggling up to FB, and it's only a matter of time till orders via FB get a discount worth having. It amuses me when people express surprise that I don't do FB, since I work in IT. What they fail to appreciate, is I don't do FB *because* I work in IT. |

I don’t expect we will actually see any reports of Facebook suits pouring from their windows like lemmings as soon as they read your post. Cant imagine why for the life of me. |

Nope, they'll just ignore them like the ignore the other 99.999999999% of facebook. It's another bubble waiting to be burst. Nope. It'll be like ebay, once it gets up a decent head of steam, and both have now, it wont burst. |

As far as I'm aware, you're not legally obliged to make an arse of yourself or post anything incriminating on Facebook if you have an account. That sort of activity is entirely optional. Facebook can be a useful networking tool. If you don't need it, don't use it but it has it's place in the big scheme of things. 10 thousand billion users can't all be entirely wrong. Tim |

Doesnt appear to be causing Adam any problem. Its never caused me any problem either and I am a hell of a lot more notorious than he is and have been doing it for a hell of a lot longer than he has too. |
