Facebook
I’m clearly not coping with modern day life as well as I should be. I have joined? entered? gone on? Facebook in the last month. A friend who moved to Ireland sent an email reporting her new and very exciting engagement - and said she’d posted photos on Facebook. To see them I had to join up. Since then I have had numerous invites to be someone’s friend, write on someone’s wall, poke someone, send them a smile…. Some of the people whose Facebook friend I now am are real friends, some from my everyday life, others (like Suburban Mum) people who were in my everyday life and then moved away. some old and dear friends whom I speak to too infrequently. If I could get my head around the concept of walls and comparing movie tastes with people then these are the sort of people that I would want to communicate with. But I am receiving random requests from people I knew at Uni. People I last saw over 10 years ago or people who have my address, phone number and email address and have never shown the least inclination to contact me. People whom I sporadically contact by email and who reply once from politeness and then not again for months and months. I can’t get my head around why they want to be my Facebook friend. Is there kudos in increasing the number of friends one has? In reality I just can’t get my head around Facebook. I go on occasionally and look at pages set up for my friends and it seems to tell me nothing other than the fact that they’ve been poked or whammied or kissed or sometimes there’s a single sentence saying they’re about to drink a glass of wine. And I just don’t get it. Maybe I’m just too old-fashioned. Or too slow….

If it makes you feel any better I don't get it much either. I have joined, rarely check it and when I do struggle to remember what password I even used..maybe this is a sign I am just tooo old??

um...you didn't need to join to see her photos, as every photo album you create comes with a link you can send folks to let them seem without being a member. I use that link a lot for sharing stuff with my parents.
Yes, there is some degree of kudos attached to having lots of friends although that was mostly amongst teenaged student types (from whence Facebook came) and is considered a bit passé now anyway.
Don't knock the fact that folks who haven't made contact for years are doing so now. I have re-forged a couple of old friendships through facebook- I have much more contact with my cousins now, for a start.
And I wouldn't bother with applications. They just clog up your profile page and are a big waste of time.
The best thing about FB is sharing photos- and that's largely what i use it for. There was a while when everyone seemed to have digital cameras, but you never saw any photos because no one printed them and very few people had websites to put them on. Now folks put them on face book, and they tag you in them so that you know there is a picture that you are in. I like it for that side of things.

If you want to get a good grade, you have to meet your professor at their point of understanding. For an essay writing to be the best, you have to conduct the relevant research and have a wide array of sources of materials which you can use as references. Custom essays have dampened the mood in academia

Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.
