facebook.com - a new addiction

The last few days I've been completely absorbed in facebook.com, a social networking website. It's got the features of linkedin, friendsreunited and myspace but wrapped in a beautifully clean and modern interface. There is some particularly nice AJAX-powered functionality like dynamic lookups and image tagging.

Adding friends is easy - the searches return photos for most people, and you can even get facebook to look through your gmail/hotmail/msn addressbooks to automatically work out which of your contacts are already on facebook.

The killer feature is the news feed on the home page, which shows everything of interest that has recently changed in your circle of friends.

Sign up here and let's be facebook friends! smilie face
