Is Facebook going slow? I know it's the time of year where my Net connection runs slow (atmospherics? ) but Facebook is painfully so . Takes 5 mins. just to scroll down the page. Glad I'm not trying to do anything important on there or I'd be out of luck.

Thanks, Sal. I'm sure it's me, as the Internet here plays some nasty tricks on me. Some things work fine, whereas others are a real pain and I can't even turn a page. Guess I'll just have to put up with it, as usual, and look forward to less humidity in the air, which is what seems to upset it.

Indeed I have, but it's still the same. It has to be the connection. Just tried sending an email and it tells me there's a problem with my connection. The Internet here is really freaky and is on go-slow heading towards summer time and now away from summer time. Obviously a bit tetchy with the fluctuating temps and humidity (like me, really ).

Guess I'll just have to sit it out until things have settled down here. I should be used to it by now but it drives me potty when I can't do what I want on the Net. The weather plays havoc with our bodies so I shouldn't complain about the Net when it throws a wobbly, too.

I too have problems with Facebook sometimes but that may be it's way of telling me I spend way too much time on there.

Gosh, now I want to join Facebook. But then, what the heck do I do with it? I barely have enough goof-off computer time to drop in here and insert a wise-guy comment now and then. I think I'd be a very neglectful friend.

Warning to all those of us on here who participate. This is from The Times of Oman . A week old but still a warning nevertheless.

It's scary what people can do with only a little bit of information. Thanks for the warning, MB.

If anyone wonders where half of us are, we're on Facebook playing Scrabulous with each other. At least, that's what it seems like.
