I am completely addicted to facebook, but do end up bored and doing other things as well. I've found it's a GREAT social network tool, because I've discovered a entire MASS of friends on the site (from Canada, from School, etc) so it's been good to 'catch up' (and keep up) with what people are doing. A good friend of mine that I haven't seen for ages, because we live on opposite sides of the country, is on there, and it's through Facebook that I learned that she's 7 weeks away from giving birth to her first (veryvery unexpected & unplanned) baby. (We'd lost contact.)
I definitely use it to keep in touch with people. Even if you don't have much other contact with them, and hence had lost contact. Good to have. *shrug* Handy.
(edited to add: umm, I had fun with the ticky boxes, and ticked them all except for no... Sorry. Thought you should know.)

I do check the stats to see who said what. I find that just as interesting as who comments!
