Time to join Facebook

[Jeannie Hall]

Hey all, a few months ago, or perhaps many months ago, Karen brought up the conversation about Facebook.  At that time, I took the plunge.  Someone suggested it is a good way to see what your children are up to, and it is.  But I still didn't see the attraction.  I did befriend a couple of classmates, had a wonderful "on line" conversation with Dan Nicholson, but I  didn't understand the reason why this was easier or more fun than regular email.  However, Mark Ungemach, '80, kept bugging me with different things to join on Facebook.  I joined the 1980 class, and all of a sudden my world opened.  After the experience of finding two different people, one from college and one from Westtown, whom I have not had contact with in 25 + years, I see the attraction of this online community.  It really is fun!  With each new person you befriend, you have the opportunity to find friends of long ago. 

 

So . . . . you all need to join facebook.  I'm not sure how to make a group for our class, but I know someone out there in our class probably does.  Take the time now to join, and somewhere along the way, maybe, we can be more organized about it.  For now, I think it's a good step towards a fabulouso 30th reunion.

Just say No.

LinkedIn does the same without all the juvenalia. Or just rock the
google groups thing a little more.

If your kids are reasonably smart, they'll password protect the "good
stuff" from adult eyes anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion, Jeannie! I didn't even know I was on Facebook, and I went there and found a whole bunch of friend invitations.

I got sucked in, too.  And it IS fun.  And it IS a great way to get back in touch with people AND keep an eye on your kids!
