Facebook is useful if you have enough friends to connect with. If you're struggling with it (and you want to "get it") then you need to meat some new people, probably younger people, who have real social lives in the real world. These are the people who add value to facebook by posting pictures, sharing their lives, and planning their next friday night out with friends. It's just another medium for communication. I'm sure there were people who didn't "get" the telephone because they thought "everyone I know is within a couple minute walk from me. why would I need a telephone to call them?" And I'm not saying Facebook is as revolutionary as the telephone but it does enable you to communicate with a greater number of people in a more efficient means. But if you don't see the point, then you probably don't have many people to communicate with.
