Is that what you were/are, a school-teacher librarian, Geoz?
I'm a different librarian stripe ...my whole career has been dealing with adults/adult learners so far. About info. literacy skills of adults. Ok, maybe I did deal with a couple of older teenagers who were looking to impress their teachers by researching university-level resources.
So, what are some of the main themes from that network discussion about Facebook? (Sorry, I'm on other forums and need to focus the info. universe on a daily basis for myself without adding yet another network to monitor.)

I thought this was kind of funny in lieu of the bridal shower thread ongoing elsewhere on this board.
I found an old HS party buddy of mine, from 1977 or so. We were catching up, and had the conversation about when she got married during our senior years.
She had asked me to be a bridesmaid and I said no because I had no money. She thought I had said no because I didn't approve! We cleared that up right away, 30 years later....

Going back to the topic on facebook...
I think I like facebook because I like to share certain things I do with my friends and when friends are all over the world, and everyone's so busy, Just take a look at my updated pictures (no need to repeat same story 50 times. by the 5th time you leave out most things)
or sometimes its late in the night and I'm working on something and i'm bored or feel lonely and its just rude to call, or to phone, and u don't want to wake the family. saying something on facebook will find me someone I know who might have a chat with me?
I have had friends of friends who try to add me, i just tell them sorry, i only add people i know in person. that said, i never share anything truly personal. just stuff i'd share if i met an old friend on a street.
i find it weird how some pple put pictures of them kissing their bfs, or stuff like that. my bf has been contemplating getting off facebook. he says that when your Dad and Aunts have facebook accounts, its time to get off... hahha. I think i need to find the time to defriend some people (but I also like to perve on their pics.. call me nosy hehhe)
