How do you attached your fb profile?

LEARN TO LINK OR DIE.

I'm on Facebook.

Me too. I'm desperate for friends!!

I guess I'll jump on the bandwagon: Chris

thank you all. I managed to link. :)

Ah ha! the secret is out about you, Clemrom!

It wouldn't fly to discuss midi-->DMX lighting or swing dancing here, or paste pictures from my friend's birthday party... so I do it on facebook...:)

I am https://www.facebook.com/DanielBennettPage

Me too!

What about you, Ralph?

I suppose this probably isn't the best thread to post in about the evils of Facebook, is it?

Supposing I am visible, https://www.facebook.com/jgallerite.

This is me https://www.facebook.com/brian.durham.52

I'll see you one and raise you an anecdote: Someone (apparently) erected a Facebook account for me - in my name would be fairer -- but I don't use Facebook on principle.

I have a facebook page with nothing on it. I worked as a teacher in a school that didn't allow them, so I never got around to putting anything on it. I entered a contest for an ipad giveaway once, which explains the existence of the page.

Two of my more creative students made a fan page for me some years ago, but posted clearly that I had nothing to do with it. LOL.

I have plenty of work, but no job.

I'm there but I don't use it a lot.
But you knew that, Ben, since we're FB friends. :)

Me too!

Bumping, for those who may have come along since then

Hardly visit and even less post, but ...

The Forum user pages have a line for email,
why not enhance the page to allow facebook?

Bumping this old thread up for the convenience of all.

Looking back, this is how I ended up beginning to network with a lot of CMAA folks, and hopefully it helps someone else, and new people can continue to add!

I don't do much with Facebook for several reasons. Before I retired from teaching, the school forbade teachers from having Facebook accounts. I also have a rather nosy relative who scours family member's accounts to see what she can find out. All of us avoid her which may be why she does that. I figure the less posted, the less anyone can use against me. I do use Facebook privately to monitor practice tapes and sessions from music students at a distance that I mentor and advise. Other than that, you will find nothing really, on my account.

I was one of the first, before most even heard of it, to join Facebook. It was a nice idea at the time but quickly got taken over by business interests against my liking. I quit a few years ago, but even so I have never managed to delete the account, and it take considerable effort to do so. In any case, Facebook is invasive by monitoring your "commercial" habits that look for key words to send you advertisements to make money off you, you have little control over how it works or who is allowed to get your info, and you no longer even own your own content, the one that you post (read the fine print).

I am now with Diaspora. It is a community effort and YOU have entire control over content and connections not business interests. Best of all it is decentralised. Give it try. Maybe MusicaSacra could have its social page there:

Ben,

I'm in a similar place to where I was the last time I posted on this topic. I can't imagine ever having a Facebook account. (The "similar" part is this: now I can't imagine why anyone else wants one.)
