Hi Gang

 

Well I have been wandering around the globe and having such fun. (virtually of course) This can easily be accomplished through the use of the internet that is now referred to as Net 2.0 (social networking)

 

I have been introduced to http://www.facebook.com Over 60,000,000 accounts have been set up and people are finding long lost friends from years ago. Even lost family members turn up. There is way too much to FaceBook to even begin to explain it here. If you haven't set up your account yet go do it and invite me to be your FaceBook Friend. Thanks

 

Next is Twitter at http://www.twitter.com now to help you understand what Twitter is here is a Youtube video

 

 

You can follow me on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/garydotgray

 

So Social Networking has the potential to do great things. Here is another video that you can watch to get an understanding of social networking.

 

Well that should be enough for this time but please if you use the social side of the net make me your friend. Thanks

 

Remember The more that we care means the more that we share.

 

Till next time

 

Smiles :)

Thanks for the update - yep, you're keeping quite busy - you're our social butterfly/guru huh. Way cool. My daughter has the myspace and facebook networking going on. So far, I haven't ventured out of my social networking outside of Strokenetwork and my regular email/im contacts. If I do, I'll be sure to add you as a friend.

Sounds like you haven't had time to check on the eagles nests this year so far. Hope you still got to plant the potatoes? See you around!

Hi Fred and Louise

 

Thank you so much for your posts.

 

No Fred I didn't have a chance to follow the West Coast Eagles this spring.

 

I am sure that they are doing just fine without me but if you find any interesting eagle links be sure to send them on to me if you can.... Thanks :)

 

Louise Great to hear that you have been getting introduced to Net 2.0 (FaceBook, MySpace, Twitter etc.)

 

There is a FaceBook stroke group called Stroke Survivors that love life. It is moderated by a Canadian stroke survivor from Vancouver. It is only a small group of about 22 members and if you do a search in FaceBook you should be able to find it.

 

I will not include a link here as it would be counter to The Stroke Network policy. (I think)

 

Thanks both of you.

 

Smiles :)
