Yes, the hatching eggs, growing flowers and all the other applications are distracting but good fun. It's also great for keeping up with my daughter who is at Uni.
"Leave Our Ancestors Alone" seems very good for people interested in Tower Hamlets.
Perhaps sombody else has found some other interesting Facebook groups that they could share?  :)

I belong to the British Gen., Irish Gen., Ancestry and British Home Children. 

Some of the groups are fun, there is one group that is "If 1,000,000 people join Ireland, Scotland and Wales will invade England". 

I started a group for a certain rootschatter who is looking for a nice man  :)

These sort of sites are of no interest to me, but after the articles in the Daily Telegraph recently of how a young woman was able to put false data there and trap a former boyfirend.   I am definitely not going to go there.

It was malcious and nasty what she did.   people do have disputes with former partners but it does not excuse this womans behaviour.

I haven't heard about what she did and i am not on facebook but if someone wants revenge/is just out to get someone they'll usually do what it takes to get it. Therefore I wouldn't have thought it was Facebooks fault, it was just the vehicle that provided the route.  If it hadn't I'm sure the lady in question wouldn't have thought 'Damn ...Facebook doesn't exist I'll just have to leave him be'  ;D
