SOCIAL NETWORKING: A New way to
communicate and tap into a rescource used by the next generation and beyond. by Tom Ayres
Facebook.com is a wonderful resource that began as nothing more than Harvard's unofficial Student online Directory and then expanded over time to colleges and eventually high schools accross the country, then the world. Today, Facebook is open to everyone. This site is great for reconnecting with old friends, and to keep in touch in a manner that allows you to control the content and the ability of people to see it. You can also search thru groups to find other with similar thoughts, ideas, or even people from a graduating class, company, social group, and yes...civic groups. Rotary has a group on facebook...and int he future, We may have one of our own. Anyone interested in Facebook, please come see me.
