Is Facebook needed, and if so, how should you use it?

It's my very first interview. Michele Fogal has created 'the Author's Batcave' as a place to chat with authors of all kinds about just about anything. I was very happy to be the first Interview and I talk about it in today's blog post

I wrote an unfavorable review on the movie Matrix Revolutions.

Got two cents to share about it?
