TBF, FB didn't either.

I'm not sure. Wasn't the underlying principle always to connect everybody in the world? I think FB has done a fair job of doing that. They just tapped into one of the basic tenets of the human condition; the desire to be connected to another human.

Does this date to TheFacebook (Harvard)?

I just spent 20 mins searching for this and on the Android app at least I can't figure it out either!

never used it myself, but its the third icon on the top-right corner (its a speech bubble with an arrow on it) after that you can click on [friends] and youll get a [friend me] url

It's just not there though.

It's a shame, I really liked the concept of circles. Where am I going to get my Buzz now?
