I just got a facebook account last week. It's interesting. It looks like it will be a good way to keep in touch with people, like a friend who moved to Europe and some ex-coworkers, some who I haven't spoken to in many years even though we were pretty friendly when we worked together.

I just did a search of my high school, and found several of my old classmates, but since I haven't spoken to any of them in a couple of decades I don't think I will try to add them to my friends list. I haven't looked for college friends yet.

For me it's a way of sharing photos, personal news and a little idle chitchat.

I also linked to or became a fan of some sites, like Team Estrogen, the Garmin and Astana teams and my LBS, as a way of keeping up with news and announcements.
