Facebooked

I've done it. I've done what so many others before me have done. I've taken the plunge. The point of no return. Life changed forevermore. Will you respect me in the morning?

I've joined Facebook.

I've persuaded some of my friends to join Facebook.

It's now a Facebook world.

"Facebook is a social utility that connects you with the people around you." That's what it says on their website. Yeah, it's a social networking site so much better than MySpace. Clean design, nicely organized, simple (and FREE) to use, with a large number of customized applications available.

The downside? Spambots. You'll see messages posted by fake users promoting other applications or websites, which is extremely annoying to those wanting true feedback from a real person. But, really...so far...that's about it in terms of the downside.

I joined a couple of weeks ago and have already connected with people I haven't seen in years (even from high school). You can share photos, videos, public comments, private messages, and more. Like everything else in life, it is what you make it.

So if you have thought about it but weren't quite sure, go ahead and join. Don't be afraid. Then look me up and be my friend. Or just be my friend anyway. Whatever works.
