Fear of Facebook.com

I guess blogging about it put me over the edge. I was too curious, so I joined. I had 8 people waiting to be my friend inside.

However, as I suspected I now have 30 emails in my yahoo box with notifiication. I am glad I have this super good internet connection here in Guatemala.

Nice to see some photos of girls behind the names.

Hi Mr. Andy,
Hope all is well at "homefront". Curious thing you mentioned skype. Ive been having troubles lately also with little popups and folks in China that I dont know from Adam's housecat. I let my number subscription lapse just to see if that matters. It didnt. Crying Shame..Ive really enjoyed my 20 bucks a year phone cost.
Ive been thinking about a little gadget called "Magic Jack" here in the states. It sounds similar to skype but its hardware vs software and jacks into your phone and computer access. Near as I can tell from infomercial at least. Might be something worth looking into..its about the size of a matchbook.
Take care farmboy...Find a place with some Christmas lights and lots of families celebrating this weekend...F-U-N. hehe

I entirely agree. I was on Facebook and have been message by people I know I do not want to message me. I can not understand the secruity settings, if there are any. However I was recently told that there are some new sites which work in closed safer environments. These do not bombard you with invitations and messages. You only invite who you want to.

The one I chose was called Finerday (at http://www.finerday.com). It appears to be a relatively new site and says it is adding more features. I am enjoying it and have added my children, who have added their friends as it is not an open networking site. I'm looking forward to their next features.

I am sure there must be more sites like this.
