Well I finally joined Facebook. When I tried to upload a photo, I clicked on browse and got a list of programs and found Picasa and clicked on that and immediately an upload started. I knew it wouldn’t work because I hadn’t clicked on a photo. I let it play out and brushed the cat while waiting. Sure enough, it said nada. Repeated tries never got me to an actual photo array so I gave up for the time being.

Then I looked for a way to sign out and couldn’t find one so I just canceled out of the program. Is it just me or is this design lacking?

I saw a lot of photos of Hobbes (which are always welcome) but nothing else.

The program also gave me an overview of everybody I have ever written to or heard from in all the years I have been on line. I omitted all the vendors and journalist contacts (you know I am always writing to newspapers) and people I don’t think I have ever heard of that were already deleted from my E mail but lurking somewhere in the subterranean confines of trashed info.

Meanwhile, I am waiting to see how many old acquaintances refuse to friend me. It’s such a delight to know I am now “out there” and waiting to be dissed. Or am I just being sensitive (another word for paranoid).
