Despite the recent additions of Lisa and Jimmy, you may have noticed that I, once an avid user of Blogger, have not been here in recent days. Many recent days, as a matter of fact. The overriding reason is that Facebook is an awesome social network, and its many applications excell and then exceed what Blogger offers:
1) Pictures and Videos upload way faster
2) You can comment on individual pictures, or the "album" as a whole
3) I can "tag" people for photos that I believe they would be particularly interested in
4) FB automatically notifies me (and you) of any comments on something that was responded to. 5) I can use the "link" feature if I want to let people know about a new blog post,
6) It is like being in a big coffee house, sipping Lattes while you go table to table joining various conversations and finding out whats new in peoples lives
7) ALL my friends are there, not just a few. Now I just need family to join
8) You can play scrabble :-)
The solution:
I recommend that you all join facebook and make me your friend. I am there alot, so you can hear all about how I am baking cookies, or feeling tired, or who I think did best on American idol. How interesting is that??? As a bonus you will have automatic access to all my photos without waiting around all the time for updates that never come. (I know you do that!)
Blogger has made significant improvements, to be sure, but as far as picture-sharing and staying in touch with family, which was my primary purpose for being here, it will never be enough.
Hope to see you all over at FB soon!!!!!!
