Facebook Friends

Wednesday, 9 September 2009
People often ask what are the benefits of Facebook other than an implied sort of navel watching! Well, on Saturday I am meeting up with one of my Facebook friends in person. What is wonderful about that is that she is one of my favourite authors. She lives in America and I felt really chuffed when I found her Facebook page and she accepted me as a friend.

She is here in Edinburgh this week to do some research for an upcoming book and we are meeting for tea on Saturday. I can't wait!

Many people perceive the web as being a very negative and even a dangerous place but in many ways it just reflects life. In our towns and cities there are places we don't venture into because they don't match our vibrations and then there are the places we go to for fun and socialising. The web really has opened up the world and I for one am so grateful that Facebook enables like-minded people to connect in a meaningful way.
