I have avoided facebook for a long time. I still don't "use" it on a regular basis except to connect to one family member. The problem is what I think is spam and seeing no way to eradicate it. Each week when I log in, there are all these names and faces which look false to start with and with whom I would never connect. There is nothing but the name and a supposed photo. No drop down box for deletion, etc. How do I get rid of these. My google searches never came up with a match.

Ever thought about dumping Facebook altogether Janis and installing Skype to contact your family member?

The library at the recipients end does not have skype.

Pity and I'm surprised that the Library allows FB logins on their server/s.

You could just use another social service like google+ to chat with your one family member it has good features plus not as congested as facebook in my honest opinion.

I find it odd that more small town libraries don't have skype/facebook available to patrons, most of whom have no other way to talk to their family member serving in the military. Restrictive but with reserved time slots, it works.

I will have to look at the google+ I am still curious though as to why the "spam:" shows up and how to delete it.

I'm not aux fait with Google + so hopefully Blooper will have some ideas.
