The new world of facebook.
I’ve been signed up for less than a week and must say I have been more than slightly impressed.
It seems a simple way to stay in touch.
I think, personally, a big plus over MySpace is that only those I say are my friends can see my profile, and even then I can decide what they see. You can see my limited profile by clicking the link in the right hand bar of SHP.
Another great feature is the events feature. I can see real potential here from organising a simple curry night to using this as a great tool for youth group meetings etc. A good feature is that you can invite people to the event and they can reply and everyone can see who is and isn’t planning to be there.
You can add photos and videos very simply – in fact everything is quite simple – even joining groups to discuss stuff of interst.
The downside is there is one template and you are pretty restricted in how the page looks.
I’m looking forward to catching up with old friends!
