I am already a member of Facebook; but, I have to confess, I only use it to play Lexulous (a Scrabble rip-off) with my relatives. I very rarely post anything. Although I do like to see some of what my "Friends" are up to, I confess also with getting annoyed with how often some of them post stuff! Really, do you need to update the world with this kind of minutae 4 or 5 times a day? It makes me wonder about how much time they spend on their computers, creeping on Facebook.
The whole social network phenomenon is a bit beyond my comprehension -- not that I don't understand how it works, but that I don't understand WHY people are so addicted to it. I relish my privacy and am a firm believer in my personal life being just that, personal.
But, like all recent innovations, if you can get people to actually sign up to follow your communications on Facebook, then it is an excellent, and most important, FREE, method of promotion for the Library.
But I still don't get the appeal ....
