Thanks for your thoughts. I spend so much time on Twitter, it is hard to think of shifting to FB, but there are opportunities for different relationships and expanding friendships we don't otherwise have time to build in our busy lives! I finally jumped in and set up a "Fan Page" for Keppie Careers, as it can be a great forum for conversation that is more "fixed" than Twitter. I see value in all of the networks. As with everything - there is no one answer for everyone, just many options! Julie – I know what you mean! Thanks for your thoughts.

Great post! It has seemed sometimes that there is a segregation of what works where. I didn't use Facebook before I used Twitter but now I am over there sometimes much more than on Twitter. I find that I can build a different kind of connection on FB. People I knew, I now know better. People I would see rarely, like my paddling friends, now say "see you on Facebook!" when they leave the river. My two worlds are integrating. My career friends see more of the strange whitewater passion world I live in and my paddling friends see me as the resource to turn to when they do need career advice. I'm different in that I am kind of a split personality but I see Facebook as an excellent way to integrate the two. Building community all around. They say pictures speak a thousand words and when I bought a little camera and started posting photos, I opened a whole different door to conversation. Networking is networking and your topic is timely and right on. .-= Julie Walraven´s last blog ..<a href="http://designresumes.com/blog/2009/10/what-makes-you-happy/" rel="nofollow">What Makes You Happy?</a> =-.
