I immediately received "friend requests" when I signed up. It's another way to stay in touch with my network. Do I need another way? I don't know yet. I have to check it out for a while. I have only contacted a few "old friends" so far, but will contact more as time goes on. Your FB Friend, Lisa Liz, so far I’ve found that much of my PLN is on Facebook.

I have only contacted a few “old friends” so far, but will contact more as time goes on.

Your FB Friend,

I joined facebook a little while ago, and compared to the rest of my networks (Ning, Twitter etc), I don't use it very much. It allows me to occasionally catch up with old college friends and to see pictures of their kids. My tweets automatically go to my Facebook status, so sometimes if I ask a question, I get a reply via facebook. I haven't played much more with it. I'm interested in what you discover. I'm sure there is lots that I'm missing. I was at gymnastics class yesterday watching my 4 year old through the glass and overheard two moms who had just joined facebook. I think the average age is climbing as more of us "immigrants" join. I do think it is most useful for kids in high school and college. They don't even use email anymore - all of their communication is through facebook. It is one stop shopping for the younger set. I can understand the appeal. My network is too diverse for that. -your facebook friend forever (yfff) Liz Hi Lisa,
