  • Has Facebook Jumped the Shark?

    I am really wondering if Facebook Facebook jumped the shark. Or put another way, is Facebook relevant anymore? It used to be that Facebook gave me a glimpse into my friends lives (close friends or acquaintances – as Facebook defines them). I knew stuff like how my friend’s holiday trip was, when they were going…

  • Click the “Like” on Facebook

    Be forewarned, this blog entry is a more of a rant than anything else. As some of you may know, Stacey Robinsmith dot com has a bigger, but younger brother, The Left Coast dot ca. I started my first blog, Stacey Robinsmith dot com, way back in October of 2004. It was all about provincial…

  • The Facebook Group to…

    Do you ever stop and think about all the Facebook pages and groups and fan clubs you join? What ever happens to them? Does the onion ring still have more fans than PM Harper? Did the group to stop education cuts stop the cuts? Did they save the rivers and the whales? Do people know…
