Facebook Stalking
Anyone ever stalked someone on facebook? Like you see someone a couple of times randomly and then decide to look them up.

Yes. All the time. Especially in university, when you have nothing to do.
Or, if I see someone post on my friend's wall and they either seem like a slut or an idiot, I check out their profile and if it isn't private, I hoard through the pictures to see if I was right. XD

I'm pretty sure everyone always facebook stalks everybody else. Even employers will facebook stalk their employees, which can turn out bad (see example below I saw on the internet):

Anyone ever added anyone? Like let's say you made eye contact several times with that person.

No. That's so creepy. I hate when people do it to me. I mean, think about how hard it would be to find that person especially if you guys don't have a mutual friend. I don't want people to know I have no life. >_<

I will normally add someone if I've spoken to them, but otherwise, no.
It's actually really easy to Facebook creep, because tons of people don't have privacy settings so all of their information is easily accessible. I've actually done it to tons of MI users.

Isn't saying that on a public forum kind of self-defeating? :|

Yea that's why I only add people i've talked too. There are a bunch of people I have as friends on facebook that added me but i've never actually talked too. It kinda bugs me that they have access to my wall etc. but I don't want to be rude and delete them because then what if I do end up talking to them one day. Then i'd have to re-add them and it'd be awkward. |

I'll admit I FB creeped a few people I met yesterday lol. And added them. They added me back quickly so I presume a) they were either doing the same thing or b) they were down with it.
Welcome to social networking - the way we're all going to lose contact with the world xD
