Maybe I'm too much out of the loop, but getting everything you want in Facebook working is not easy. In fact, people who have a FB account, and manage to get their stuff out there can't complain about any other software.
Here I am, a "computer nerd", and I'm wrestling with how stuff works, and where's the "help file?" Glad to be communicating with a lot of friends, but "whoa there – Joe needs to catch up."
Looking around on FB, there are not many older people – maybe my angst is part of their reason. Sometimes it's just easier to pick up the phone and ask the question or give the answer. However, this makes it easy to let a bunch of people know what's happening in your life.
Perhaps in a few days, things will settle down and I'll be cruisin' on FB, sharing with my friends around the country (even the world). Kinda cool and exciting at the same time.
