Facebook to facebook

I still don't understand facebook. I don't really see what advantages it has over blogging: and I see a bunch of disadvantages. But I have taken a few more facebook-y steps in the past couple of days.
My cousin friend-ed me on facebook on the weekend, and of course I confirmed her to my circle of friends: this reminded me that I was a member of facebook (don't ask why: there is a not-great, and prosaic reason). I hadn't logged on in at least many months.

But since I had logged on, I looked to see what some people I knew were doing: one, it turned out, had gone to study at Oxford for a year, which was surprising and interesting, and gave me the impetus to email her and find out how things had gone.
Today I found myself being friended again by some new people. When will it end? Probably when I don't get facebook still, and hence don't interact with it!

Yours, faceless,
N.

Hi! Sorry that I've got comment moderation activated --- I had a few unpleasant comments which forwarded people to bad places automatically --- so now I like to check that comments are real before allowing them.
