Doing a cleanse of your facebook account: Setting an intention

Do you ever sit back and really wonder about your Facebook account. What is up with all the "Friends" who you really don't know? What about the ones whose News Feeds you enjoy and cannot imagine leaving—are they really called "Friends" or aren't they really someone you look up to or admire in which case you should be in their fan club? Whatever the feeling you have, remember each of these "Friends" can watch everything you do on Facebook. 

Maybe you think that many of them are not paying attention. Probably true. But what about the ones whose names you would never be able to select in a multiple choice question as your friend, yet they post on your Facebook Wall one day that you "have been stalking their page." What?

Linking your Work "Employer" on your Facebook personal profile to your Facebook Business Page. From your personal profile, it's easy to set up your list of work engagements, employers, projects, etc. If you also have a Facebook Business Page, I'm sure that you named this page the name of your business. In this case, you will be adding this business name to your Work section on your personal Facebook profile, right?

How many ways do we need to connect with social media?

How many ways do we need to be connected via social media all simultaneously? [A comedy seen through the eyes of a user enchanted by it all].

I have an iPhone and Macbook Pro that speak well together and when I'm on the road I've got my 3G network for all media needs but also wifi networks popping up onto my screen whether I need them or not, often password protected. I often find myself asking for the wifi network password, wherever I am, whether I need it or not. When I get back to my car my bluetooth kicks on so that all phone calls speak loudly through my MINI.

With all this technology it's so tempting to want to work it all even while driving my car. But, of course I don't because that would be dangerous. But first I've got to plug my iPhone into the iPod connector in my car so that I've got my new music just delivered and synced this morning all cued up in my car for my 8 minute journey home.
