I’m not sure why, but I have a Facebook account. It’s done through my Mississippi State email address, which I still maintain.
I’ve never really done anything with the account. When one friend started sending his emails through it, I asked him to go back to ‘real’ email. It’s a pain.
My friend Sheri Lynch, the “Sheri” of radio’s Bob & Sheri, has 530 friends. I have 20.
There was a time you’d have to guess how much friendlier Sheri is than I am. Now it’s quantifiable. Sheri is 26.5 times friendlier!
My daughter has specifically asked I not ‘friend’ her. It’s a parental stalking thing. I get it.
As part of the Facebook process, I have to confirm friend requests, checking a box to explain how you know you. From now on, I’m just checking ‘we hooked up,’ regardless of who asks.
Geoff have you tried Stumbleupon? It’s an extension of Firefox.

I think it’s more interesting than other social networks because of the many ways you can stumble websites that are of interest to you.
Ah, social networking sites. The downfall of society.
I have facebook too geoff and i saw urs. It’s the must have to be in with the crowed.
I felt sort of strange when my son added me as a friend on Facebook but he told me later it was to get easier access to my blog. I felt a bit dumb after that.
I read this, and was all excited to add you to my Facebook friends, and then I saw that we would have “hooked up” – and so I have to wonder if being friends with you is worth “hooking up” with you. Hmmmm.
