Yes, I was a sceptic about the whole social site thing but now that I’ve joined Facebook and have two circles of (real-life) friends joined up to it I have found that it’s become a good way of keeping in touch with people I’d catch up with a lot less often.
Facebook seems to be the academic/graduate version of MySpace. All I’ve done really is post a few photographs of the Tromso trip and a wedding attended and set up an RSS feed from here. Pretty straight forward and you can restrict as much or as little of the information as you wish.
Well the only other person from the junk/bullet crowd on there currently is nobby… and he’s told me that he’s going to add you to his collection of eclectic friends. 🙂
This helps me a bit – didn’t know what facebook was although a friend had sent me an invite, in fact possibly two friends, would have to check my mails. Might try it when I get back – and I really must work out this RSS feed stuff to keep me up to date with all sorts of stuff (rr keeps nagging me, I’m always too busy, like right now!)
Well, you do seem to be too busy for anything at the moment. I hope Chris and Grum are keeping you well looked after.
By the way, did they manage to build the Lego(tm) jib crane(s)?
