I’ve thought about joining Facebook but then my years in IT overrode my nostalgia and said NO!

That is what is interesting — people more mature into IT avoid it, whereas kids who think programming in C++ for a few months makes him/her an IT expert jump into it.

Same here! I guess when you work with the technology, you know what it's capable of. I have tied my 'real name' to NOTHING online. I've always remained 'unplugged' when it comes to social networking sites and all the rest. I can type my name into some of the various 'people finding' search engines, and there are NO results that lead to me. On the other hand, my wife is into the whole social networking thing, and I CAN be found though searching for HER, so I've been compromised anyway, on some level....
