We're off to see the Zuckerberg...

So I discovered this strange Oz-like world called Facebook. I think I'm the first human to stumble upon it. However, if you follow my small footprints and trail of crumbs you'll either discover my kitchen or this fabulous new world of Facebookery.

If you do make your way to this magical realm, feel free to friend me. This is me: http://www.facebook.com/bryan.russell.10004

I think so, anyway. There are all sorts of bizarre rules and legislations in this new land, and it is always better to travel as a pack (for the feral minded) or a group of companions. So feel free to friend me, particularly if you are a dog, a girl with ruby slippers, a lion, a scarecrow, or a tin man. Flying monkeys acceptable upon proof of good hygiene.

And yes, "friend" is being used as a verb. This new world blows my mind.

I'm still holding out.

You need more photos. And joke videos. I'll tag you in something.

Hehe ... :-)
Alex, I think it's time you cave ...

I'm with Alex. Not on Facebook, nor Twitter. No time. But have fun, Bryan!

I avoided it for ages and only last September broke down and joined. It's better than I imagined, at least once I got all the quirks ironed out. I prefered the idea of creating my own author page than letting some random person end up doing it (after I become rich and famous ;) )

I went through a Facebook phase. I haven't been on there in a while, it sort of got boring after I looked up all my high school friends.

But I will go back just to friend you! If you promise to ignore any pics of me that my so-called friends have posted. Those were church camp pics I swear.

@ Marsha

I'm pretending I was born in 2011.

Mira said...

ha! You've taken the plunge. I've not yet made "The Move", but I'm feeling the pull.

I'll be watching carefully to see what happens to you, now that you are in the Zuckerberg zone....

Good luck! ;)

@ Mira

Lots of fun and crippling anxiety. I think I've already offended a few of the smaller continents.

I'm the girl with the ruby slippers, but dang(!) those things took their sweet time in getting you over there. *click* *click* *click*
