Facebook

I've been sucked into Facebook. I've known about MySpace and Facebook for years, but never saw a reason to join either. Slowly though, more and more people I knew and met were joining and sharing on these social networking sites. As the number of people I knew on Facebook grew, I began to realize I would eventually be sucked into it. I resisted for a little while, but relented recently. I doubt I will join MySpace because I know very few people on there and the target market seems to be a bit younger.

So far Facebook has been good for getting updates on some buddies I lost track of some years ago. It has also been good at connecting me to people I haven’t seen or talked to in a very long time. It’s free and works better than classmates, so why not. It also gives me a connection to the group I play pick-up soccer with regularly.

I linked here from my Facebook page, so we’ll see if I get more readers. Some people might find it interesting to read my rants. Some might even be offended. A few might determine I’m crazy. Oh well, such is life.

Hard to believe seven years ago I was in Alberta, CA. I hope we get to go back at some point.
