The first persons profile that I looked at is a good friends cousin. Watching her on facebook is like a car crash, its awful, but you cannot look away. I have met the girl many times, and she is nice, but lets just say her profile is a great reflection of her actual being. She changes her picture about 5 times a week from different shots with either her sorority sisters, her current SEC quarterback boyfriend, or just the normal model shot. She is Miss Teen Pennsylvania, which makes it even more interesting to look at. She actually does not post many pictures, just the constant default change, which is something to think about. She does not put too much information on her info page, but what is there is enough to get a sense of who she is trying to portray. All her websites are about her, her modeling portfolio, her twitter, he fan webpage. I find myself wandering to her page almost everyday since there is often something new to look at. Not to mention she has over 4,000 friends. Her mothers best line: "go facebook all the college quarterbacks and friend them, that's was Kacie does!" I think that sums her up.

I am also somewhat obsessed with roaming to the assistant dean of students at my upper schools page. She is older, but not my parents age and has a young girl. She mostly just posts pictures of her young family and complains about this and that. I guess I like reading her statuses and comments because when I was in upper school, you know these people in a different way. Now i can see old teachers comment on each others things, which is fascinating. Our school had this daily meeting just for faculty that was called chambers. In between first and second period, for that 15 minutes, every faculty member went to this one room for a meeting. I wanted so badly to know what they were talking about, and this is pretty much as close as I will ever get, especially being 4 years out of upper school. So she uses facebook for a staying connected and chatting with other moms means, which is pretty boring, but the inside scoop of teachers, makes it a great facebook location.

The other facebook page that I frequent is actually a page for my good friends business. It is a fan page, but she uses it more as a personal page since the place is small. It is a painting studio with taught art instruction and a wine bar and every night pictures are taken and then put on facebook. Since I have volunteered the painfully slow task of uploading pictures to facebook, I see a lot of this page. It works as a means of advertising. Every monday a free class is given away to a random facebook friend as well as the surprise discount night to only facebook friends. There are contests and rewards for frequenting this particular page. The posts are always about what is going on currently in the world of canvas and cocktails and is always accurate. What you see on the facebook page is what you get in person.
