Facebook and LinkedIn

Sat Feb 14 16:27:38 CST 2009

I´ve just created a group in Facebook called "Sociometric Encounter" (I can
change the name if you wanted). If it will be useful remains to be seen...

Go to facebook.com, make a simple registration (name, e-mail, password and a
few other things) and search for "Sociometric Encounter". Join the group,
where you can write things, add photos, videos. It's time to expand...I
guess...:-)
