back to facebook...

So after telling all about leaving facebook a few months ago, I joined again this week. Ah.
Maybe I have too much time on my hands... ;)
Well really what motivated me was to keep in touch with friends and family abroad. It's easier to share pictures that way.
Except of course I haven't been able to upload any picture yet!
oh well I hope to upgrade my computer soon and get to it.
I am also quite happy to have more insight into some internet friends, people I know from discussion forums.

I am hopeful that I can use the privacy settings with more discernment.
For example I'm thinking about sharing this blog address or/and the french one on a restricted part of my profile. I don't consider there is much secret stuff here but this is personal and important to me and I don't want to get random comments from random people. i like that I can make lists of friends and allow only some to access certain info or photo albums.
Also Joni, who so nicely commented the other day, thank you! I haven't got back to you but the only thing private about here is that it's not listed on google... I don't mind people coming from other blogs or comments.



I haven't posted much lately but I'm really interested in your opinion and use (or not) of facebook. Please take a minute to comment if you can...

I use FB and love it for keeping up quick and easy like with family and friends. I have reconnected with people I'd lost touch with over the years and that's been really nice. I don't do any of the games and applications which I think makes it real easy to keep up with!

I love seeing you on Facebook! I use FB a lot because I live so far from family and friends...it is a great way to share photos and stories and a sort of 'virtual neighborhood' with people you would fall out of touch with otherwise.
