I recently opend up my profile and got a few friend requests, which I accepted. But then, I started getting "suggestions" for friends--who were friends of the friends who originally asked me; so I dutifully said "Sure, why not?" and then I got more "suggestions" for friends of the friends who had been friends of the original people who asked me to be friends--now the system is asking me I want to invite friends of their friends, and then friends of their friends who have friends and friends of their friends--ad infintum...;)

Lo, and behold, now it says "69" friend suggestions. Of course, I don't actually *know* any of these "friends"...;) Well, at least it doesn't yet say, "666 friend suggestions"--yet!

So, if anyone gets a "no friend" from me, please do not be insulted or upset in any way as I assure you it isn't personal. It's just that this thing is snowballing exponentially and soon all of GOG will be my "friends"...! Millions of people will be vying for my friendship and I fear I shall be lost among all of my "friends"...;)

It's all part of the connected-ness that we're supposed to embrace. Don't sweat it.

Welcome to the wonderful world of social media; shallow, superficial, and empty, just like we are. lol

Here is the deal with "friends"

Ross - amiable but shy paleontologist who is in love with Rachel.
Monica - anal retentive chef and Ross' sister.
Rachel - former rich girl/beauty queen trying to prove she can make it on her own in NYC.
Joey - lovable but not so quick witted actor known as a true lady's man.
Chandler - career oriented with a keen gift for sarcasm.
Phoebe - dedicated, if often discombobulated, musician poet and dreamer.

I hope that clears everything up
