I am on facebook, too, for just few weeks now. Most of it doesn't impress me much - lots of idle chatter. But the sharing of photos is a LOT of fun. I really enjoy this way of connecting a little more with distant (in every meaning of that word) family members and email friends. For example, my husband has a large family and we don't live close - if not for the young cousins sharing photos, we'd never see their kids. Even my own kids, who I see and/or talk to on the phone all the time - on facebook I can play scrabble or have a quick chat with them. Or get glimpse into their network of friends. I began as a total skeptic about facebook but have been sucked in. I do warn you that some of the games are highly addictive. Word Challenge, Tetris - do not go there unless you have lots of time to waste (smile).
If we had facebook connections among HER2 group members just for sharing photos, I think that it could enhance our togetherness on this site. It would be a way to welcome all who are interested, without the "clique-y" feel of private posts and private photo sharing. It would of course, be totally voluntary - no one with concerns about privacy or anything else would have to participate. The only thing we'd want to be sure of is that we keep the conversations right here, as they've always been.
Joe, what do you think?
