Her life, as it unfolds, is my new addiction.  I'd like to think that I'm an evolved, caring human being.  Hardly.  This woman - like me, a mom - seems to be drinking in the authenticity of life in "the jungle", as she calls it.  Her reasons for moving away from the United States to experience poverty firsthand, seem simple.  She and her family did it just because they thought it would be enriching and adventurous.  Her blog is almost devoid of photos, which makes it even more splendid!  It's amazing that the internet allows us to keep in touch with someone who has kerplunked herself in such a remote part of the world.

What does your location say about you?

The   daily   login   to   Facebook.

Suddenly it's not so much an addiction is it?

Facebook is now a prevalent way to touch base with family, coworkers, old school chaps, former glee club fellows, and even your babysitter. Yes, these are just a sampling of who I'm connected with in my cloud of "friends". But what does your facebook page say about you in a split second?
 
If you are an actor or musician, your presence on Facebook can have a positive effect on ALL of the "friends of friends" who login as frequently as you do. If you pay close attention to your Settings, you can make sure that every new photo album and video you create pops up in the News Feed of potential new fans. Just make sure you tag your friends accurately, do clever status updates, and leave comments that are sincere and jovial.  Okay, it sounds a bit like the mayhem over at myspace, yet more subtle. 
 
Don't underestimate the tiny square avatar that shows up each time you leave your mark on another man's wall! What does this chosen picture say about you? Is it just your happy face? Is it your dog or a cool picture of your favorite car or coffee mug? Social networking sites have the power to be a FREE branding opportunity for an artist. Right now. What does your page say about you?
