WEb Challenge Thing #11 - Facebook

I've been on Facebook for a while. I joined in order to complete the CJRLC Web Challenge last year and have used it to keep in touch with friends and family all over the United States. I was "friended " by my children and some of their friends and really enjoyed seeing their pictures and activities. I also use Facebook to keep up with what some of my peers are doing personally and professionally. I noticed that some of my colleagues distinguish between personal friends and "professional" friends by having more than one presence on Facebook. I think that's a good idea but a lot of work. I agree that there may need to be some boundaries between "public" and "private" life but Facebook and other social networking sites seem to blur that distinction in new and interesting ways.
