My friend Emily enticed me to set up a Facebook profile, and so while I was on holiday I did so. Now I have lots of friends and some goofy posts, but I'm not sure where to go from there.
At least with linked in, I can get recommendations, look for jobs, and do some corporate networking.
I'm really not sure what to do with my facebook profile - I seem to be missing the point here.
Maybe if I was single, under 20, etc. I would see some utility in this, but I already have MSN, LinkedIn, as well as the old fashioned meet people for lunch routine. I'm not quite sure how facebook can help my life, other than to confirm that I can link to profiles I already have connected to on other networks.
The odd thing too is that people I see every day at work now come up to me and say, "Hey you're now my face book friend" - wouldn't it have been easier to have just gone for lunch than to find me in a search engine?
My favourite thing about it so far is this post I got where you can submit your picture and it will tell you celebrities that look like you...see http://www.myheritage.com for more details on this.
