I have had a look at the youtube segment on Facebook and have joined, will ask some of my colleagues at work to show me around. There has been alot of talk about the privacy problems and there have been stories from friends where private information has been sent on to others so still very cautious. I also think about the photos that people add, their whole life is exposed to the world - not for me.
I'm interested to see what happens at the end of the year as Bebo ceases and will the Bebo users transfer to Facebook?
I have looked at a few libraries facebook pages - another way to communicate to library users about events, new books
I would tell the customers about our facebook page but would need a small guide for myself to tell them about it. I think we now need a DLE with list of all of our services so that customers can ask us more.

DLEs - I can't say I'm a fan of DLEs. I absolutely see how handy they can be but they are time consuming to produce and we would need one DLE per social networking site. Having said that, I have been playing to see what can be done :) I've never had a problem with Facebook and privacy - mostly because I post nothing to give me concerns. I have family members, colleagues, old school friends & ex-students as 'friends' and they are all privy to everything I upload/update which reminds me not to add anything I wouldn't be comfortable with my mother seeing LOL I don't have anything like that, anyway, so it's never going to be an issue for me. It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea, though. To say the least *snorts* Whoa - that's you finished! Congratulations!!
