Facebook

Reluctantly after much prompting from my brother-in-law, Rick Curry and others I finally delved into the world of Facebook. At first I wasn't very impressed and it just looked like a total time waster. Although it is easy to get caught up and waste time I have come to appreciate what it has to offer.

The best part of it is that it offers an easy way to stay in touch with friends and family in a casual easy way. I get to see family photos, know what is going on in their lives and allows me to post the same for them. On the most part it is snippets of life with no deep look that still takes a more real relationship. One nice thing is that through those snippets I want to spend real time with many of them.

I do feel that in our modern era we find it easy to cut short real relationships for the safe and easy online and texting facsimile. However, that is better than nothing so I am pleased with Facebook and I have to say I love texting because I have always hated talking on the phone.
