I noticed today that I now have 800 'friends' on Facebook. Friend #800 is Shae Shae, a powerful blogger in the afrosphere.I joined Facebook a few months ago with the intention of identifying alumni from High School Computer Competition (HSCC) held annually by BDPA. I figured that these young people would be on Facebook. I was surprised by the number of adults on this social network. I have found fam
ily, college classmates, business colleagues and a handful of celebrities via Facebook. Even my 70-year old mom opened up an account last month!Facebook is a fun place. I don't use it to conduct business, although I am using it to promote the Electronic Village!

i've quickly become and addict of facebook though i think my wife is worse than i am. i'm over 500 friends already.
I think it's cool.
Shawn - I don't think I'm an addict (smile) ... but, I do try to get to FB daily to keep current...
Urban Scientist - Very sad to read your decision re: AfroSpear. We are the change. We can't make it if we all leave. I wish you had chosen to simply switch to 'no email' for awhile to let the dust settle. Anyhow, I respect your decision. Just sad to read it...
I just joined last week
Monica - I hope you become FB friends with Shawn, Urban Scientist and me!
