An online network open to college students at certain universities. Students make up their own profiles which include a picture, name, birthdate, interests, and classes. They can then search for other students at their university or another university that has the facebook. One can add people they know or random people as their "friends."

Good for:
1.) Procrastinating
2.) Stalking
Scenario 1:
Girl: Last night I didn't get any work done because I was looking at facebook all night!

Scenario 2:
Girl 1: I found that really hot guy from our history class on facebook last night!
Girl 2: Really?!
Girl 1: Yeah! His name is insert name here, he's in insert classes here, he's single and is looking for a relationship, friendship, dating, random play, or anything he can get! (options under relationship status and what one is looking for)

A semi-useful social networking site that's a decent way of reaching certain people and tracking down acquaintances you don't talk to very often. Also valuable if you enjoy reading people's status updates, such as important breaking news like "Arthur is at home" and "Serena can't wait for the weekend."
Jimmy is having marginal success with using Facebook to fuck chicks

I'm still getting friend requests from high school acquaintances on Facebook. That site is so 2007.

A social network where the word stalking should be really analyzed and thought out before actually coming up with a definition for facebook stalking. How is it any different when one person constantly monitors another person's every move on facebook reading the person's blogs, photos, posts, newsfeed etc... When one hundred other people (facebook friends) have access to the same exact information the person puts out? Alot of times when people become facebook friends they are not actually friends. They are just giving each other permission to read each other's profile. Facebook is also highschool bullshit. Alot of people caught in it are even people who graduated highschool ten years ago. And then there's all these fringe artists, musicians, comedians wanting people to join their self loathing fan club. Then there's those facebook people who feel the need to have the most facebook friends. Sometimes when people send friend requests it's only because the person knows a certain amount or group of people that they know.
"What's so great about Facebook"?

"It doesn't take forever to load like Myspace and it's not limited to just college students anymore"

"He and she would like you to join please stop Facebook from becoming a paysite"

"I appreciate the invite but I hardly ever log on to Facebook. Basically I don't give a shit."

A place that used to be for only people in college, and then only college and high school, and now its lame and equally as creepy as myspace because its open to anyone and everyone, and they have something called the "news feed" where you learn about dumb shit that no one really cares about. (Basically an easy way to stalk people.)
Facebooker 1: Hey I was on facebook today and after I read the news feed I learned that megan's relationship is now complicated and jen just wrote on cindys wall!

Facebooker 2: wow. I really didn't need to know all that.
