WoWing Facebook
Thanks to our friend and colleague Alisa Harris, WORLD on the Web has entered the world of social networking with its very own Facebook page. If you are one of the 50 million Facebookers out there (if you’re not, you probably will be soon), stop by, become one of our “fans,” let all your “friends” know, and write something clever on our “wall.” And be sure to return often as we continue to add features. The page, which is still in its infancy, currently offers news feeds from the WoW/WorldMagBlog pages and links to WoW’s movie and music reviews. If you have any great ideas for some cool apps we could create for the page, be sure to let us know.
















But if I make you my friend, I won’t be annonymous anymore and you’ll be able to see my picture . . . and that of the adorable grandbaby.
Woot! I’m WOW’s 22nd Facebook Fan!
Now we can see the private lives of the editors: Mickey McLean has a dog and Alisa Harris looks strangely like a question mark.
That’s no dog. That’s my home office assistant, Daisy.
Mmmmm…I’m torn. In order to disrupt world’s function as a tool of conservative orthodoxy on Facebook, I would need to become a “fan” of that same conservative orthodoxy!
Derek — I actually don’t really look like a question mark, believe it or not. Must be a result of my paranoid privacy settings. I’m a fan of the whole shrouded-in-mystery concept.
Speaking of which, Michelle, I considered the problem that WoW readers might not want to give up their anonymity. But as long as you don’t accept any friend requests, no one will know who’s who.
Yay! 22 fans! Good to have someone besides all my relatives.
Keep on fighting the good fight, Luke.

Alas, I’ll also be maintaining my semi-anonymity (I think that there are enough clues over the last 5 or so years that someone could figure it out with enough work & digging, but it isn’t really worth anyone’s effort).
Eh, I figure I’m out there on the web for anyone to see–I added WoW, so I’m a fan with my picture for all to see. Except my name here isn’t the name under my profile pic…
No, you have joined the evil empire! Don’t do it! Don’t let The Face consume you!
“We are the Facebook. All of your face are belong to us. We will devour your face and add it to our own.”
