Are you on Facebook? Should you be?

I have been working with SEO (search engine optimization) and on-line marketing to learn how to get our advertising found by people searching for what we offer. I have been told by many “gurus” that I need to be on Facebook as this is the interactive wave of the future as well as the present.

I have put it off but, I finally set up my own Facebook account this past Sunday night and all I can say is, “HELP!!!”, I can’t get off! What is this thing? It has a life of its own. People are chatting on there constantly, even talking about when they woke up and what they’re wearing to work. Really? People have this much free time?

So, I’m learning. But I’m wondering: Do you use it? How do you use it? What is your experience? What are your “helpful tips”?

Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated and I promise I’m going to get off Facebook and get back to blogging!

Thanks!
