started out as a way to stay in touch with my children. Then I found people I graduated from high school with, then college, the QB peeps, then my other passion (suicide prevention) has brought me very dear friendships. I get work through fb- people know what I do and I get 3 or 4 deals a year.
So- you just have to remember- set your settings to friends only, have your friends be known to you and be careful what you post.
Now linked in- whatever is the purpose of that? I have an account but other than accepting requests, I haven't clue what to do to make it work for me.
