Very interesting article in my opinion, one that I have bookmarked for future reference. While social networking sites are not blocked here where I work, they are categorized as a "time waster" even though our organization has several high level execs that have profiles & several groups setup. How much of a time waster is it really? I have a very large number of FB friends that are from these Sunbelt lists, probably at least 50%. I think that it extends the cooperativeness of this group and camaraderie that we have, and I think that is a very valuable thing. It has taken someone from being an email address & name on a discussion list, to having a face and a personality. Take Don Ely, he's a goofy looking mug (just kidding) to someone with a real life and a couple of good looking kids....makes him seem almost human ;)
