I’ve just joined Facebook. It seems that I’m the last one to that party! On the up-side, it means that there are many many people I know on there.

Much more fun than linkedin.com which I also joined a while back but never did much with.

I never joined Facebook before now because I’ve not been that interested in ‘social networking’ as reason for using the Web. I use the Web for buying things and looking things up. I do use instant messaging…a lot…including using Sametime avidly at work (for work and for friends).

I’ve been on Friends Reunited for ages, though never paid the subscription. I’ve had one person contact me (which was great) but mostly I’ve just used it to keep track of what people from school are doing now.

Facebook is just a more fun way of doing that. And you don’t have to pay money to do interesting stuff!

Ah well, I’ll wait and see how many people accept my invitations to be their friend.
