    I joined in fall 2004 when my university was available on FB. One of DH's first moves was to "poke" me. Does anyone remember that feature? I quit in 2011, shortly after DS1 was born.

    I had no idea I had been on for 10 years. Apparently I joined in September 2004.

    9 years! I got it the DAY it opened up to my college. I think some people voting 10 are thinking "oh I had it from the beginning" but the first year it was (slowly) adding colleges, starting with bigger ones. I knew we got FB when I had about 7 missed calls after a class one day My friend at UDel had been letting me use her log in just to see it for the prior week!

    So since facebook lookback isn't working for me (boo! fb glitch!), I was able to look back to the first photo I was tagged in and it was Nov 2005. But I think I was on FB a little bit before I was tagged. So almost 9 years.

    I was a junior in college.

    I think 8 years. I joined my senior year of high school right after I got my .edu email address for college!

    8 years for me, I don't think I was even in University yet? Maybe I was by then?

    haha I joined when it was still relegated to just certain college campuses. My login is still my UNCW email address But I didn't start using it until Myspace got lame.

    I think I joined in 2007! It was my senior year of high school! I wanted to join before that but my mom was SO against it.

    @bluestriped bee: It's not working for me either!

    I joined in 2008, so I guess it has been 6 years for me.

    I was surprised to realize I've been using it that long! I joined in Nov 2004, so a little over 9 years. I remember getting it, because my cousin had it. I never really used it back then, I was too busy with instant messenger!

    I've been on for 9 years since graduate school when it was very new. It's nothing like what it was when it started. I liked it when my inlaws weren't on it.

    @Boogs: My FB video works now. I think FB fixed the glitch. Go try it.

    So, I was wrong. I joined Facebook in 2004, not 2005. Must have signed up but didn't get into it til 2005.
