Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've been using it to keep up with her wedding plans, and when we talk about AB being a flower girl, half of it is on my page and half on Rachel's, and it's just so disjointed compared to if we were doing it in email and it was all neatly threaded in my gmail account as God intended.

You can use Wall to Wall and it will separate them out for you--if you want to have the conversation in public. You can have threaded private conversations just like gmail would track, pretty much, if you send her messages.

The reason I can't accept Facebook as a substitute is that the messages are out there. With email, I have the messages locally stored and I can work offline. Maybe I'm a dinosaur for assuming I won't be able to be online 24/7 (no matter how much I might want to be), but there you go.

I'm perfectly comfortable with my current online presence. Which is like, here and lj, which I mostly use to just read.

I have a cell. I use it as an alarm mostly. It's pretty much for travel or when I fear my car is going to break down. I get text messages. Well, I've gotten them. My brother once and the one time I called lori when she was in a meeting. But I don't write them.

I'm a luddite, really. New things? Ew.

Punishingly Intricate

I am exactly meara re. Facebook. It is also good for when I need to contact my college-aged cousins. And for sending out announcements about events.

I love texting AND talking on the phone. They each serve their purpose. Am having hilarious text convo right now with bandmate about how we are going to do the whole 140 mile bike ride we're doing in May wheelie-style w/ banana seats and handlebar tassles and "cock rockin beats"...it's not really a conversation we'd have over the phone.

myspace has annoying interface but is good for music stuff.

Oh! And then there is Twitter...which I haven't quite found a use for but it's funny.

I can't even figure out IM.

And I am a Computer Professional.

Well, ok, not really. I'm very specialized.

One thing I love about the Noah & Grace pix is how one or the other of them looks highly dubious of their sib in most of the shots of the two of them. It's classic siblingism.
