Some friends of mine are discussing how much they hate Facebook, meanwhile last night I met a couple of people I knew in high school at the Rubin Museum of Art (one of them works there).
So for me, yay Facebook! Woohoo Facebook! I had fun. Plus, that thing on inauguration day, the way cnn.com had the Facebook status reports running alongside their streaming video was perfection, and one of the things I always imagined the internet could be.
I have always loved what I called the MSTK3 aspect of the internet, although that is a dated reference. But I love how on the internet we can all group-critique the world, life, news, etc. And that Facebook set-up was a perfect use of this very thing. Perfect. I hope they and others continue to do things like that.
Anyway, I had great fun Eline and Mark, I loved seeing you both. And the exhibits at the museum were fabulous. I tried to find a picture of my favorite piece (the Loving Kindness 3rd/4th century piece, which was Eline’s favorite, and she might have influenced me!) but I couldn’t grab the picture from the website.
>the MSTK3 aspect of the internet
Yeah, I’ve always called it that, too.
I was disappointed that I couldn’t participate in the Facebook thing during the Inauguration, but deadlines demanded that I couldn’t take off, and my office has all “dating/social networking” sites blocked.
Bummer!!!!
