FB.


and Twitter.


Yes, I'm on both and have a personal page and a page for the Nursery.
There are many gardening groups on Fb, covering a wide range of
different types of gardening. I resisted Facebok and Twitter for a long
time but have learned rapidly that they are what you make of them and
that it's very easy to avoid those you don't wish to encounter. Groups
on Facebook can be closed, private groups or open to all.


I used Facebook for a few weeks and set up some groups but it never
really suited my needs so I gave it up. I much prefer Usenet because
it's all in one place as I am. Just on click and all my newsgroups and
emails are brought up to date. I suppose if I was mobile with portable
gadgets my preferences would be different.

Me, I do not trust them, they are, to my mind, very intrusive.
