Okay so I resisted joining Facebook because I was afraid I would become addicted to it. I am already addicted to my blogging and didn't think I could devote anymore time to being online.
A former coworker somehow sent me an e-mail and in order to see what she posted for me I had to join Facebook...I don't really know how it happened I am totally ignorant when it comes to social networking and the inner workings of the sites. So anyway, I set up a username and password, read what she posted for me and I logged out without setting anything else up.
That same day I got 3 e-mails from Facebook with names of people who wanted to be friends. I accepted those and posted comments on their sites. I looked Jess up and invited her to be friends so I could view her stuff but still didn't really want to set up my site.
Well today I get like 6 or 7 e-mails from Facebook regarding people who want to be friends. I guess I better set up my site tonight so that my friends won't just see a cartoon silhouette and no info.
I am kind of excited about being on Facebook now that I know people actually want to be my online friends. I have got to set limits on the amount of time I spend online though....so addiction for me please!!!!!
Aww hell, I didn't know you didn't want to be friends! I'm Sorry Joy!
ReplyDeleteI knew you would cave!!!! When I got your request I sent out a thing to a few people we know that would want to know you had joined :) Now you are in the "loop" and now when your not answering your cell I will know your on Facebook :)
ReplyDeleteOh no April...it is fine...I just KNOW I am going to get hooked and be on there ALL the time. It was meant to happen eventually. I am about the last person on the planet to be on Facebook.
ReplyDeleteYes Jess I knew you were probably responsible for people suddenly becoming aware I was there and befriending me. Now we will have more to talk about when we have our 3 hour phone conversation marathons every month or so. :-)
Yes, you will quickly get addicted to FB. Every time I come home I immediately check my email, check my Blogger dashboard, and check my FB.
