I checked out Facebook a couple of months ago and I've been finding it a great way to reconnect with old friends and acquaintances. It seems to have started as a tool for college students and has expanded rapidly from there. However... it's been twenty years since I graduated from high school and most of my friends have been out of school for a number of years.
Do you think Facebook has a place for "older" users or is it still the domain of the teens and twenty-somethings?

Facebook is blowing up, I remember just 2 years ago when only about half of all colleges in the United States even had it now it seems like everyone I know and their dogs has a facebook profile but be careful I have heard a lot of horror stories of people having a hard time being able to find a job based on what is in their facebook.

Everyone I know uses it. Including my aunts. SO I dont think its just for younger people.

I totally agree. I think Facebook is a great platform for social networking and I think you'll see more "older" people use it as time goes on.
