Theos-Talk Archives (March 2009 Message tt00352)

Cass (and others interested in networking)

Facebook is a legitimate, and totally free social networking web site  
-- like myspace,com, but more friendly.

Go to facebook.com.  Sign up.  Set up your home page with a picture  
(so everyone will know its your legitimate place) along with whatever  
other personal info you want to give out... And then search for your  
theosophical friends.  When you find them, follow the instructions on  
how to make them your friends on facebook (so you can see their  
entire home page and find out what friends you have in common).  Then  
watch your friends list start growing, as everyone starts teaching  
you (the system automatically notifies you by email whenever a friend  
contacts you) and you learn how the system works.  Simple...  And  
fun, when you see how useful it is to connect on a personal level  
with friendly people, associates, etc., around the world, share  
pictures, gifts, thoughts, ideas, etc -- and, interestingly, even get  
to meet each others families (most of my kids, cousins, and grand  
kids are on facebook). Be careful, though, you could get hooked. ;-)

See you there,,
Leon
P.S.  As for the lack of activity on the facebook Theosophical  
Network -- it's not really designed as a study group or list, but  
simply as a vehicle to keep everyone informed of matters of general  
interest to theosophists.  That's fine -- since this list keeps  
everyone busy enough gabbing, anyway. ;-)
