Facebook: Not Just for Kids Anymore?
I have a college-aged sister, and a couple years ago, she told me about Facebook, a social networking site for college students. Since I was in graduate school, I signed up, but since I was a very old graduate student, it became rapidly clear that I was one of the oldest people on Facebook. However, it seemed that basically every college student was using it to see who was in their classes and form groups based on dorm, major, etc.
A couple of years later, however, it seems that more and more people are using it, and recently, just over the past week or two, I've seen a lot of people -- some I haven't seen in years -- suddenly joining Facebook. Weblogs I read are even creating Facebook groups. What's going on that more people over 30 are using it all of a sudden?
Anyway, for those interested, I present:
Orkut (remember that?)
