Not at all. It's very considerate of you. If you yelled to him you might disturb the neighbours

No!

I wish I could do that!

I can usually find my children if I follow the trail................. I can check on my grandaughter's horseriding lessons via fb, my grandsons' sporting and school activities, their school events, all without having to call anyone, it serves a purpose for special needs support groups where mums and dads are housebound, the possibilities are endless.

However, I don't take it out with me and I don't know any fb addicts.

Of course it is.  How would he ever live it down with his friends?

You have to ask him via a text message.

his friends can't see his messages - and text messages cost 1 cent each  lol

I didn't know that.  I don't do facebook.

there is a private messaging system on there as well as the 'wall' which is open to friends viewing.

a chat box pops up and you type away to each other - like msn and other instant messaging programs
