TheFaceBook.com
The following post was from my original blog on ronincyberpunk.com, it is archived here for posterity purposes
A couple of days ago a roommate asked if I had been to thefacebook.com and I sort of shrugged and shook my head. I was of course deep in study mode at the time. When I did eventually find my way there I realized I had been there before but then, when I had first visited, they weren't set up to accept GT students.
On this go around they were all set to accept GT students and let me tell you - this is a party like no other social networking site I've been too.
Thefacebook is a social networking tool aimed at college students, faculty and alumni. It includes tools to find fellow students at your school, or as I've been using it predominately for - finding high school friends.
It's only been 2 and a half years since I walked across the stage with all my friends. Wait. Holy crap. 2 and a half years!? That can't be right. Dude. 2 and a half years. No wonder we all look different.
I posted one of my thoughtful pose pictures on thefacebook and I've received a handful of comments on it. The comments range from saying that I look dashing to "I didn't recognize you." The latter being completely understandable as I don't know how easily I would recognize me either. Maybe I'll dig up a high school photo and a now photo and do a comparison...
Anyways, thefacebook is very cool and has potential to keep me coming back (orkut lost me after a few weeks).
You all will be seeing a few projects come rolling out of RCP Studios in the coming weeks. We'll see how things go over the winter as to the timing of it all. But I'll just say that the Internet will never be the same ;)
