In light of earlier discussion, I thought some of you might be interested in this news blurb:

Thefacebook To Expand Social Network
by Gavin O'Malley
Depending upon their social networking prowess, college students should either be delighted or dismayed to learn that Thefacebook plans today to announce an expansion that will encompass every campus in the United States. Made possible by a $12.2 million investment from venture capital firm Accel Partners, the social networking site will expand its reach beyond 800 existing colleges and universities to all 1400 of the nation's four-year schools by the start of the fall term.

Some more links

As the late early adopter, I thought I'd send a few links that might be interesting to our mixed audience:

Here's a very basic infor-abot sort of piece (with one of my fave titles):

This blog is a rich resource for lots of other blogs--and Nick is one of my favorite people as well as being the Bedford St. Martin's Director of New Media (or some such title). Nick is also extremely accessible and available--I don't think he sleeps; he's always online!

I do think we should keep this blog going while Dom is away. . . when Caristi returns, he can jump in and we can continue this as a support piece for the 7 of us.
