Okay, okay, okay… I’m on Facebook now, will you all leave me alone???!?!?! Heidi, aka wittywoman, said the magic words yesterday that got me to sign up for Facebook. No, I’m not telling you what they were. I know it’s a great way to connect with old friends, make business contacts, etc. But Man, I had no idea just how many contacts I would make within the first 5 minutes of signing on. It’s a bit overwhelming. There are so many ways to communicate… chat, private messages, wall to wall, etc. I thought I was going to get dizzy just trying to keep track of all the stuff popping up.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy there are so many people who want to be my friend or reconnect with me. I can see how it can be addictive. Thank goodness I can’t look at Facebook while I’m at work. They block the site from the kids while they are at school. Speaking of the students…. This is my disclaimer that I will not and can not accept any friend requests from students. So please don’t get your feelings hurt when I turn you down.
Anyway, I look forward to reconnecting with old friends and catching up. I have noticed that some people have posted old, “big hair” photos. Hmm, that’s been fun to see… So much for burning all that evidence. Anyway, it’s all in good fun.
If you’re not on Facebook yet, would I suggest it? I think it certainly serves a purpose and maybe I’ll warm up to it a little bit more after I figure it all out. Just make sure you’re ready for information overload if you sign up!
