My First Facebook Dinner Date

By: Marijean Jaggers | 10/08/2007

I'll be traveling to St. Louis later in October and, while Facebooking (hey, if Googling is a verb . . . ) received an invitation to dinner with some St. Louis friends.

Interesting note, my dinner date friend (a member of the St. Louis media) says in his profile, "I'm here, learning about Facebook, because my future depends on understanding this stuff."

How true. Are you in Facebook?

Yes! What I find funny is that my friends and I have been using Facebook’s event invitations since my sophomore year in college (wow, I appear to be quite young). It’s not so much a social media innovation to us as the usual method of communication.

I’m a facebookie too. I’m trying to decide if “couple” pages would be worthwhile for folks that use it solely as a social tool. That wouldn’t work well for me since I can and do use it professionally… hmmm

I have a Facebook profile as well as MySpace. Facebook as gotten a little too complicated for me, but perhaps that’s because I was exposed to MySpace first. I started my Facebook profile for the same reason your dinner date friend started his.

I’ve had the facebook/myspace debate a few times, and it really came down to this. My dear husband joined myspace. The first night he was on, he found a long-lost female friend from high school. Need I say more?

Facebook, MySpace,  oh my.  I think we should just do what Elton John suggested and shut down the internet for 5 years and let everyone’s creativity flow.  Then plug it back in and see what happens.
