Who's on it? Anyone from the boards? -mJ

Yes.

Moo

yep.

I believe the affable w+a has a link to just about everyone, no?

I wouldn't recognize your name & photo SC.

Mark, well, yours is pretty easy to pick out.

Lamebook?

I guess you can figure out my answer.

Not to offend anyone but Facebook and Twitter seem ridiculous to me.

Ridiculous is being nice.

They are both drains on our society. If you really have THAT much time to tell me what you are eating, reading, doing, spend it with your kids, reading a book or doing something creative for society.

Sort of like I should be doing now instead of posting on this damn forum.

I think much less of them than klymkev does, but I like the way he criticizes them.

No...not yet at least.

I think I remember Mark showing up in my suggested friends list a few times. But since he has not yet sent me his CV, three each business and personal references, and a personal financial statement, I have never yet acted on it.

Some of us have higher standards than others for their friends to avoid having their wall become lame.

KSCO2: My last name is very distinctive and easily found when Googled which is why I don't use it here (personal and professional reasons). Then again, unfortunately I would not know yours either.

I will make exceptions for board members here. Best thing might be to have you contact WIML if you have his email and have him give you my name so we can hook up.

If you don't know WIML nor have his contact info, you are a nobody in the wine world and I am not interested.

No, never, not a chance. My wife and kids use it though, oh wait that is one of the reasons why I say no, never, not a chance.

Yep, I'm on there, and have enjoyed discovering long lost friends.

One of my recurring nightmares is that some "long lost friend" will find me.

No, no Facebook.

No Twitter either. I think you need a cell phone to Tweet. Not sure.

Yep.

Facebook is a great way to keep in touch with friends, especially someone like me who has moved around a lot. I’m having fun with it. Twitter is not for me, but I can see the draw for a lot of people.

Always surprised by how polarizing the subject of Facebook and Twitter can me. Drains on society??? It’s just not that serious….

Ditto...and new ones too!

Twitter is a hell no though!

yup, I am on there, and Twitter too, if you care... am friends with all the right people WIML, W+A, TBird, PinotLvr (who I still contend should change his name to Brunellolvr)... feel free to send a friend request. I am the one in the photo with JC in ski clothes, and helmet so you REALLY can't tell who I am

Someone said that Twitter "is for people who think that everyone gives a shit when they take a shit"

FB and Twitter are nothing but tools. How lame the sites are depends upon how lame your friends are. If your friends are tools, you will think FB and Twitter suck. To get philosophical for a moment, how much you enjoy the sites depends how much you enjoy your friends and is more a reflection of YOU and your taste in friends than a reflection of the web site.

No, I don't twit even though I have an account.

Moo

Do you think I'd get sued if I founded "Ass Book"?

I'm on there. Send me a friend request and I'll gladly accept it.

Cow/KSC, I'll do a friend suggest for you two.

Yes to Facebook; no to Twitter.

I don't use it much, and I've never posted one of those "what are you doing right now" posts.

But I have been able to get in touch with some old friends and acquaintances.

I agree with Sacred Cow that Facebook can be as good or as bad as you want it to be.

I'm with Glennk - Facebook is pretty useful when you're living abroad. Don't really get Twitter though..

I'm on facebook.

Facebook ate my baby.
