At a thanksgiving party hosted by a friend recently, there was a noticeable frenzy to take, and be in, photographs. Apparently, everyone knew that the pictures would inevitably end up on Facebook and it seemed everyone wanted to ensure that they were properly represented. True enough, while the photographing was going on, one of our other friends was on … Facebook. Such was the fever that our host remarked, “Facebook will soon consume everybody’s life.” We all laughed. (More …)

so true. one can spend hours wasting time on facebook though. and the useless unnecessary apps (of which there are many) get annoying after a while. still, like you say, i’ve managed to find old friends and it’s been a nice surprise to see where everyone ended up

Facebook is a useful tool when used properly and in moderation. I have joined it but under an alias and use it primarily for my blogging purposes as a member of the Nigerian bloggers group.
Other than that, I am hesitant to make myself overly accessible to people I know or don’t know. It just gives me the creeps in a Big Brother is Watching You kinda way.
Nice blog, I found you through Akin’s Aworisms. Do update sometime soon.

I’m a facebooker too and now that you have my email address, you can find me there.
I do like the fact that I’ve reconnected with people whom I thought I would NEVER EVER hear from again. I think I did a post on it myself. I don’t do most apps, but I’ve come across an addictive one or two.
I’m very protective of my kids and their photos are friends only, but my photos of my childhood, is out there for my firends and friends of friends. It’s all a matter of personal comfort.
Gotta get back to my packrat game.
