Please stop creating a Facebook group or fanpage for EVERY SINGLE THING in the world. Thank you.
I took a 48 hour break from online communication (and that includes my cell phone) during the holiday season. It was a great detox. When I opened up my Facebook account this afternoon I had invitations to more than 100 groups and pages. Of these 100+ invitations, I joined TWO.

Facebook creates a common language for friends
We (husband and I) attended the wedding of two college friends a few months ago. The two of us attended with many college friends we hadn’t “seen” in years.

Welcome.
I’ll keep this short and sweet… It is my goal/mission/passion/hedgehog concept to socially connect good people with other good people – FAST! Seriously.
