So a couple of months ago I was talking with some tech people in our industry and they suggested I join Active Rain, Linkedin and Facebook.  My first thought about facebook was I can't do that my kids will be so annoyed.  I have a 22 year old son  who just graduated from WSU and an 18 year old daughter attending her Freshman year at WSU so obviously facebook is their social network.  I made a vow to myself I wouldn't ask them or any of their friends to be in my network.  Next thing I know they somehow see that I have joined and alot of them have sent me friend requests...well anyway I was playing around on facebook last week and became a fan of oh lets say about 50 different things....doritos, laptops, coca-cola,etc.  Well what I didn't realize was this posted out there for everyone to see and my son came to me last night and said "Mom you look kind of dumb being a fan of everything whats up with that?"  I told him I thought I was just checking off  things I liked, I didn't realize that it showed every single item on my profile and everyone could see it.  Well he showed me how to chang things last night  so now I am not a fan of everything and learned I really need to know what I am doing on facebook before I start checking boxes off.  Alot to learn on all these social networking sites...I guess its just trial and error.  I just thought I would share this funny little story I learn something new everyday, and my kids definately let me know if I am doing the wrong thing on facebook.  Have a great Holiday!!
