accepting friends

By clicking the friends link at the top of the screen and clicking accept on the friends page.

I never have quite figured out what adding friends does?

I think it lets others who view your page see who you have made connections with.  I have always wondered, when I look at others' friends lists, why the remove button is visible, and what would happen if I pushed it. 

Brumby, nothing happens if you use that button 😉  (or at least I didn't notice any changes ...)
