Facebook is so very active

Have not been much of a On line Social Networking enthusiast. Primarily as it goes against my "Anti Social" primal nature :-). Its something I deeply value and something that is woven in my genetic code :-) Anyway, I am amazed by the number of my friends who are rather active there. I decided to login and post a couple of messages and before I could sign off, I had responses back.

People really digg Social networking, a late realization on my behalf. Go figure. I would have never put my money on such a site like Facebook. I must admit I quite like their Web 2.0 design. Very Web 2.0 with a lot of Ajaxian features and especially Ajaxian features that are responsive and done well.

One thing that has discouraged me from these social networking sites is that none of the folks that I knew growing up are on them. I seem to be the only one from my groups that has a presence on any of these places. Were my friends/generation just not technically savvy or am I just hated that people appear as invisible via some rule that says "boolean result = {String user = > user.equals("sanjay") ? false : true}.invoke("sanjay")"

Am seeing myself engage more on Facebook, and yes, this is one of my split personalities that likes socializing which is becoming the dominant personality....Scary times ahead!
