Default So I joined Facebook...

Okay, so I joined Facebook the other day (My Page if you're interested) to see what all the brouhaha is about. My first impression, seems pretty boring to me. Anyone else tried it?

have been using it since .. um.. '04 i guess.

good way to keep track of/ in touch with a large group of friends and acquaintances . cool little apps , easy to upload pictures and such... just keep in mind that their privacy policies are fairly uh. how shall i say. "interesting". Make sure you know what you're putting on the internet.

I had to secure everything up when I had a business contact request to add me. There are very many unprofessional things on my Facebook page. There was a dude borrowed my camera in the Dominican last year and took a couple pictures of his wife topless, then his balls. I just slapped everything into an album and one of my Facebook friends reported the pictures! Honestly, if you don't like what you see then tell me or don't look!

The best part of Facebook for me is reconnecting with old friends who moved away, or are moving where I live now. Aside from that I don't use it for much, though it can be a nice way to schedule parties and stuff.

Too dangerous to use, some net anonymity is can come in handy.

I have anonymity already, there are a couple Hollywood people with my name, including a dude on IMDB who was a producer on Everybody Loves Raymond so it's hard to find stuff about me online.
