After much arm-twisting from a friend of mine, I finally took the plunge and entered the world of Facebook. After some initial hesitation, I am SO glad that I did.
I have already connected with several kids that I used to babysit. Two of my brothers also have facebook accounts that I didn't even know about. I am from a very small hometown, so it has been fun to connect with people from Chokio-Alberta High School.
I can easily see why kids get hooked on it. I spent a couple of hours in just setting it up and reading some of my friends profiles.
It makes me think about how communication has changed. The world is so connected now!

Sarah,
I'm having fun with my new Facebook account, too, though I keep having to ask my 16 year old for help! I don't think I can keep up with everything - professional reading, blogging, social network, etc. etc. There just aren't enough hours in the day!

I wonder who did the armtwisting?? LOL! I love my facebook and I find you definitely go through phases where you check it a lot and others where you don't!
I need to take the plunge as well- you have given me the confidence Sarah- I'll let you know if it's horrible.
