Let's consider the phenomenon that is Facebook for a moment, shall we? I've been exploring it latley and quite enjoy it. Thanks to Facebook, I now know that Jeff went golfing this weekend (and had a WONDERFUL time). Dianne is not liking the weather. Jeremy is now in a relationship and Sue just became single again. That is something that I don't understand: putting your relationship status on Facebook. I know of a friend that was dating a guy, and week #1, my updates told me that on Monday, Deb was so looking forward to the weekend! Tuesday-3 more days till the weekend and I can see Charles! Wednesday-hump day! We talk every night! Thursday - Friday tommorrow, YEA! Friday - Deb is now listed as single. There ya go, the whole world now knows your whirlwind love life thanks to Facebook. And how can someone have 4,653 friends?! Really? It seems to be a status thing to see who has the most friends. I feel left out only having 84.
Then there's Facebook Farm Town! I am totally addicted to Farm Town!
Facebook Farm Town is virtual gardening. This application is wonderful! Grow your own little garden and raise farm animals. Sell crops at market. Work at your friends farm. It literally keeps you coming back because if you don't, your crops will die! I know, I know, get a life girl! Anybody can have a Facebook page. A certain cause or organization can have a Facebook page. Heck, even your dog can have a Facebook page. I was thinking of letting Baxter have his own page, but he'd probably turn out to be a better farmer than me!
I can say, however, that Facebook has put me in touch with alot of old school friends, which is great! Now you can see how former classmates have changed over the years and all the vacations they've been on and all about their kids' life too. It all depends on how much info you want to put out there.
Then there's the birthday thing. I'm thinking about changing my birthdate from January to August to see how many friends put me on their calendar and see who will send me birthday greetings. Heck, someone might even buy me a cake! Sweet!
Well, better get to work, I think my crops need watering!
