SGM Private RallyPoint Member Great article. I don't do facebook. I have a little more trust in RP as an organization.

I get on Facebook maybe once or twice a month, mainly to see what family members and close friends are doing. I don't want it to become a substitute for real, face to face communication but sometimes distances and finances prevent me from having that as often as I would like.

I do Facebook daily. It's the way I stay in touch with my friends and family that's spread all over the world. I also use it to run my online support groups and to spew out information about my favorite social justice causes. Feel free to visit anytime! https://www.facebook.com/melkerj
