Facebook Changes

It's absolutely a reflection of no one in particular, but I noticed a couple pictures that I posted on Facebook were copied and posted elsewhere. That's a little weird and unnerving, and made me re-think what I'm putting online.

I created my Facebook page, just like my MySpace page, to promote Freshmen and interact with folks in a new environment, less tyrannical than this one and shifting away from the Freshmen messageboards, which just aren't all that interesting now that we're not regularly publishing the comic (I'm still working on the movie, quite dilligently).

But soon after I joined Facebook, the same thing happened to me that, well, that happened to just about everybody else in America-- old friends looked me up, and suddenly my professional and personal worlds collided in a way that I wasn't quite prepared for.

My professional "voice" and my personal life weren't designed to interact with each other or pay for one another's mistakes. This has nothing to do with anyone, it's not a vote of confidence or otherwise, it's simply an indelicate separation of something that had to happen at one point or another.

If I dropped you as a Facebook friend, I apologize and hope you won't take it personally. I'd love to see you at my fan page, feel free to throw stuff up on the wall for us to discuss. I'll update that page quite regularly-- moreso, in fact, than my personal one, and I'll post news updates about things I'm working on or personal appearances.

Hope to see you there!
