Are any of you on Facebook? It seems so...um...sheepy, but I met up with some old mates I wouldn't have otherwise. Plus, you get to see people better. Without the front. Just them and their family.

Social networking is what it is. If it's your thing, do it.

Granted...this site counts as social networking. Notably absent: Narcissism.

You kidding? On my facebook, you get to really see what a bonehead I am. Look at how rich I am. For lunch, I'm eating a hotdog, with ketchup AND mustard. Weee. I haven't eaten out since I got a free bloomin onion at outback with my best friend Mary. We are CHEAP!!!

And how do you know you don't like me, if you haven't met me, and we haven't had a beer together? Who knows, I may invite you over to stay at my home during BikeWeek 2010......

I use Facebook a bit to keep in touch with friends. But I recently made the mistake of adding my childhood home town and high school to my profile. Now I am getting contacts from folks I thought I had left behind. It's a bit weird.

I also have "friends" that are actually news and media outlets, as well as Triumph and my local dealer. So Facebook acts as a news feed which is working for me.

I use facebook.

Its so much easier to be reminded of the embarrassing things you've done when you have pics up online you can browse.

I only add people I actually speak to though.

Nothing against it as such, just haven't worked up any interest in it. Probably will eventually, I have some friends living overseas who keep telling me to visit their page. I keep saying, "just e-mail me the stuff." We'll see.
