So... are you on Facebook? Linkedin? Any social networking sites?
According to recent reports there's more than just kids on these networking sites. A BusinessWeek article entitled "Fogeys Flock to Facebook" says:
Facebook, the online hangout for college kids and recent graduates, is growing up. The site has amassed an audience of 33 million Web users, initially by catering to well-scrubbed kids who use the social network to nudge their friends, share photos, and swap music tips—all while consuming ads from Gen Y brands like Apple, Jeep, and Red Bull.
Lately, an influx of older users—professionals in their 30s and 40s, many in high-tech—is changing the face of Facebook. Among Silicon Valley executives, journalists, and publicists, Facebook has become the place to see and be seen. And it's not just tech. Consulting company Ernst & Young's Facebook network boasts 16,000 members, Citigroup's (C) claims nearly 8,500.
Well, we never want to be at the tail end of a trend so we set up a Facebook network, too!
