How many members here are on facebook and visit each others page.

I'm guilty of spending a little too much time staring at facebook. I do keep track of a couple of forum cronies over there.

It can be nice to catch up with old friends that you haven't seen in a long time, but it can be a real time-sucker too.

I'm on Facebook a lot. A lot of my friends are steel players and other musicians.

I enjoy Facebook. There is a certain amount of silliness, but overall, it is fun.

I'm there, too. It didn't take me long to stop doing those silly 'Which ****** are you?', but I do quite like the occasional three-way conversation that can occur.

The other thing I approve of is the facility to post photo albums. I was on the point of getting a personal web-site, but Facebook provides most of what I'd have used my own site for. I started this with MySpace, but hardly ever go there anymore.

Thankfully, I'm not yet in the habit of visiting FaceBook every day - Hotmail, Steel Forum, then Model Bus News, and I'm done 'til my next log-on (at least half-hour later.....

); only a specific email drags me over to F/B, but my wife also keeps me updated!

I'm in. Avoiding twitter like the plague, already getting too ADD from all the distractions on the computer!

Roger Rettig · Post by **Roger Rettig** » 4 May 2009 1:45 pm

What on earth is 'Twitter'? (maybe I don't need to know, but I do wonder...)

John McClung · Post by **John McClung** » 4 May 2009 2:21 pm

Roger, ignorance is bliss! Don't go there!!

Facebook is how I often correspond with my children (early 30's) and granddaughter (12).

Bryan, I did a 3-month Alberta tour in 1979, including Lethbridge, with a little local country band, the Lang-Ackroyd Band, were you living there then? Happen to see us? We played a hotel or tavern, can't recall which. I thought it was so cool that there was a whole circuit where bands rotated and played a week at a time. Had a lot of fun in Alberta. Loved Alberta Springs whisky, yummy!
