Social Networking and Cities

I get so many friend suggestions on Facebook just because that person lives in Maryville. I wonder if it's the same living in a larger city...

People in urban areas can easily reconnect using social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace. If there's a party in town, a luncheon for work, or a class-wide study session somewhere off campus, people can easily just look up the address, and click, "Attending," on the event page.

Facebook used to be network-heavy. They had regional, university, high school, and workplace networks. However, they had removed regional, for some reason, and depended on its users to tell where their current location is. I liked the regional networks, though; it was easier to reach out to the surrounding suburbs rather than just one city. It was nice.

I also met a lot of fun people because I was part of the Kansas City network.

So what would you say? Is Facebook becoming an everyday tool to plan things and to connect with people around your area? I'm not sure why this is even a question; of course it is.
