Well this is kinda an obvious question, Im just asking this because one of my cousins from canada( who i didnt know existed untill tonight) found me and several of my aunts and cousins through facebook, this means that my already large family got bigger.

Dear God please let my karma one day reach 100, whether it be tomorrow or 1000 years in the future i want it to happen.

Yeah, I have. I found a family member who I hadn't spoken to in many years who now lives in DC. She even invited my brother and I to stay the weekend there, so we might do that this April (I'm dying to go to the Air and Space museum).

Not family, but I've regained contact with a few friends that I had when I was younger.

I found some of my distant cousins in Germany through Google. I also found my cousin that is living in India right now through Skype.

I've had distant family members add me who I didn't know existed, but I've never really talked to them..

Some (read too many) family members have added me on facebook.
Family members I haven't talked to in ages and for good reasons.
Now well I'm more careful of what I put on facebook..

I'm protecting my grandparents from photos of me holding multiple glasses of alcohol and dancing wildly to Sex on Fire, and the like.

My brother and "cool" family members aren't limited.

I can't imagine my grandparents using facebook.

I've had some random folks with the same last name add me, but I know we aren't related because my family is small as fuck.

That reason is the exact one why i am glad my family goes not use it except for me. (By that i mean that i'm pretty certain there is a photo of me holding multiple glasses of alchohol whilst dancing/semi drunkenly singing sex on fire, i know for a fact there's one of me where i look very drunk (not at all drunk in fact) holding a nearly empty pint whilst in a conga line).

I have had a friend move to canada and then subsequently been added 1 month later by a girl who i went to primary school with but then moved to canada when she was 9.... that those two met up is a hell of a coincidence.

I never have, would be funny though if someone from a foreign country who is a relative would suddenly contact me though.

The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.

No.
I don't think the family from far away even have internet.
If they do, then in limited conditions.

What is your last name and what families are you related to if you're being serious(which I doubt)
