I think its a new feature, basically when you look at someones profile there will be a little thing that says these people are my friends. It kinda like the system they have on Myspace I think, I don't think it really does anything besides that.

I've gotten a bunch of those too, in the past couple of days. Is there some significance to this, or are we just collecting them like trading cards??

I'll give you a Chewyeti. I don't even want anything in return, just take him.

Now that is funny! Nothing against Chewyeti, but that made my morning just now. Great way to start a Monday. You would have gotten TWO THANKS from me for that one...

The contacts you can talk to. The friends automatically get your bank account information and can read all your e mails.

You better start collecting them if you want to be cool.

The Thanks cool points went away now its just friends.

Good one sir, good one.

But, unless you offer A LOT of cash, you won't get much for me. Some might even say you'd have to pay extra to get rid of me.

I will give you a DeeZee and I want the change back.

Will you be my friend Greg? I don't have many friends .
