Facebook... here I come!



So I am now having fun with Facebook. It gives me the chance to do and own stuff that I can't in real life: having dogs as pets (Pokey and Pet Pupz), a colorful garden with plants that have lovely and cute faces (Green Patch), an empire of business establishments (Be a Tycoon), five cars that earn money while parked on a street (Parking Wars), buying people to own them (Owned), playing and winning in Bingo without spending a single peso (Bingo), having bugs that compete with other bugs, eventually making you an Olympian bug (Bug Olympics), being an X-Men like character (My Heroes Ability), designing several rooms in your house... (as you please) in My Room, tossing bottles at friends and breaking them - again without costing a single cent (99 Bottles of Beer), sending and receiving Good Karma (Send Good Karma), and making yourself an evil monster with an army behind - choose how you want to fight: Vampire, Slayer, Werewolf, Zombie (My Slayers). All these and more.

I guess the best thing about FaceBook is the fact that you get to interact with long time old friends that you don't get to see or talk to anymore. I must admit I am getting addicted to FaceBook, probably because with my first job that I spent almost four years in, I was confined to the four walls of the contact center, and having no social life at all, with my long lost friends. With FaceBook I got to realize the fun things about not working in a call center anymore. (Well I guess it is different if you have all your friends with you in the graveyard shift... but this is not the case with me.) No blocked sites, no browsing restrictions. (What the heck of me to say this when I am working from home anyway... lol)

** Thanks to Joey Capco and Mark Dionson for introducing and inviting me over to FaceBook.
