According to an article I just read, "never before has an Internet phenomenon swept a country like Facebook, the insanely popular social networking community with more than 2.5 million Canadian users, 75 percent of whom log on every day for an average of 29.6 minutes. Founded three years ago by Harvard dropout Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook has grown so popular -- and addictive, as many of its users will attest to -- bans are now commonplace in the workforce."
So, what is the big deal? Is it about social networking, connecting with old friends, OR is there more behind it? Maybe it's about the implicit need in all of us to know and be known by others! That maybe God created us with this need for community!
Anyways, I've been on facebook for a month now and will be preaching on it @ the Tap on Sept 9th. I'd love to hear your thoughts, so blog away!

all the same!
facebook, myspace, friendster.. they are all the same. maybe I'm just old school, but what happened to meeting each other face to face over coffee? Can facebook replace or replicate real authentic relationships?
