Facebook. Yes. I did set up an account some time ago. I felt the need to engage. However, I've made very little use of it. I suppose it's something to do with with sharing with the outside world. I know that Facebook is so important to so many people and it's the means for communication. My own daughter knows what's going on through Facebook (she couldn't operate without it). I know what's going on through phone calls and emails.
I haven't tried LinkedIN as yet, but I know that in professional circles it's the technology of choice and so maybe I should.....................
OK - update I am well and truly linkedIN! I have now set up my account. I haven't populated all of the fields but have included my education and current details. I can see how this is a valuable tool for for marketing oneself. However, I think that maybe my use would be for me to be more contactable by people who may know of me but have no contact details. I attend the USTLG twice-yearly meetings and find them really useful. Networking is a big part of these events and so for anybody with whom I chatted over lunch who may wish to contact me, now they can and I can make contact with them also.
