Have you noticed the change?

Silver King · Jan 25, 2010

Bet you didn't.

The former Blogging forum is now called, Blogging and Social Networking. This is an important change since, as the description reveals, that room is now open to other forms of communication such as, "Wordpress, Moveable Type, Blogger, LiveJournal, Twitter, FaceBook, Myspace, LibraryThing, GoodReads....and on and on..."

Even though Office Party has hosted discussions of most of those mediums at one time or another, we now have a designated area to share our thoughts and views on any specific or general topic related to social networking.

Pretty cool, eh?

I'm hoping not to notice "The Change" for another 15 or 20 years.

Jen is showing her age again and repeating her lines as if she were twenty years older.

That's because I announced the change exactly thirty-four seconds before it occurred.

I'm glad I didn't do that.

So, this social networking thing,
that's like for people with friends right?
Is that why we didn't notice?

I'm not sure. Speaking for myself, the only friends I've made in the last couple of years have come from AW social networking. Sounds sad, but it's really not, as I am much more discriminating about who (or whom?) I associate with these days.

If you only knew our true identities.

Got it the first time around, I don't need to be reminded! Gah!

Wait, we're supposed to have friends outside AW??

We'd better not!

I'd have to leave the house?

*starts hyperventilating*

brokenfingers · Jan 25, 2010

So, does this mean it's now required to have accounts in those mediums?

bettielee · Jan 25, 2010

I hate change!

**cries**

What if we don't have any friends? Even on AW?

No. But I've been thinking of starting a new social networking site and calling it MyFace. Has a nice ring to it, you'd have to agree.

I was considering starting one called YourFaceMyAss...but I think I'll pass. I was actually gonna use the web address www.gottamatch.com but I was afraid people would confuse it for a dating site.

Williebee · Jan 25, 2010

Myface already exists. Sorry.

Wait, you mean you didn't get SK's "Friendship" letter where you choose what level you want per size of "contribution"? =)

No, all I got was a link to where to put my CC information for monthly recurring membership fees.

I tried socializing with "outside" friends the other day. They expected me to be amusing. It was a major conflict of interest.

Have you noticed the change?
