Facebook, Where Have You Been All My Life?

OK, so I finally took Sonya’s advice and signed up for some online networking sites. You can now find me on LinkedIn and Facebook. Yes, yes, I know. “You’re just getting around to that?” you’re asking. Well, you know that person who sees a movie on DVD a year after it came out and then tries to tell friends who saw it in the theater how great it was? That’s me so please forgive me if this post sounds passé. With that said, Facebook is great. Case in point: I was looking for a new magazine intern recently and was able to contact my Facebook friends for potential candidates. Several good candidates turned up as a result. I hope to use it more like this in the future. How has Facebook changed your work life? If you haven’t signed up for it, why not? Does anyone see these kinds of sites affecting them in negative ways?
