Among adult Facebook users, the average (mean) number of friends is 338, and the median (midpoint) number of friends is 200. In other words, half of all Facebook users have more than 200 friends, and half have less than 200. Younger users tend to have significantly larger friend networks than older users: 27% of 18-29 year old Facebook users have more than 500 friends in their network, while 72% of users age 65+ have 100 friends or fewer.
These days you simply look up on Facebook and add them as a friend. The definition of friend on Facebook is not the real definition of friend. But its a smart name friend a person. More than know, etc. A categories therefore help. In the near future, people would have around a 1000+ friends. Not all of them would be a daily or close friend; but someone you known or shared a portion of your life with. Its just a method of bridging the timeline in a person's life with respect to social interaction.
