I am totally reliant on Facebook for birthday reminders 😀
I always used google calendar, but i'm still stick to call friends for their birthday. I'm so old fashioned
This year FB reminded me of my own birthday :D!
if it wasn't for fb, i wouldn't care that it's your birthday!
wow I forgot my birthday and facebook remined me thanks FB 🙁
lol +Cynthia Coleman! I know what you mean, at some point in one's life – it's just not worth remembering! ;o)
Hopefully (and I think I read somewhere that Google is working on it), they'll add the Google Calendar to G+.
Do you get notified if someone's birthday is coming up on Google Plus? I have yet to find out.
Not yet +Julia Abenes not.. yet 🙁
I hated the whole birthday thing on Facebook.. last year It was all "happy birthday josh." blah blah..
this year I took my birth date off.. and I got zero birthday wishes.. not even my Mom remembered…
which made me realize I have no real friends and technology is my only hope of staying social and "artificially" connected to people..
I feel you, Josh. I almost did the same this year until I awoke that morning and wanted the meaningless notes and scores of Happy B-Days. I then went and replied to each one, individually, hopefully changing the nature of these virtual friendships.
