How I Avoided Facebook and Why I Finally Joined

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

Avoiding Facebook for more than two years has been pretty simple. I started by not joining Facebook, even when I got those tempting emails letting me know which of my friends (whom I have live contact with) had invited me to join. Next, I didn’t search Facebook to see if people I wanted to (re) connect with were members. Call me old fashioned, but I like having relationships with people, not computers.

On November 15, 2009, I stopped avoiding Facebook.

I was at a social networking seminar a couple of weeks ago and someone said that if you don’t find Facebook, it will find you. That person knew what he was talking about. As a public relations professional, I believe that credibility includes a proven track record in delivering messages to appropriate audiences through appropriate media. In PR, experience always outweighs education. Telling clients that I know how to use Facebook and understand its value is not nearly as effective as showing them. So, I joined.
