It’s a small world after all!

I am not sure what this has to do with the Restaurant Operator but since we’re all people, I’m going there anyway. It’s the holidays – let’s have some fun.

I recently found Facebook. (I know… I know, where have I been?)

Anyway, I have to say I am addicted.

For those of you who are in the dark ages still (like I was), facebook.com is a Web application that allows you put up a Web page, talk about yourself, connect to friends, and even helps you find people you may not have connected with in years.

I think it is great. I have found neighborhood friends I knew when I was 6 years old and college friends I haven’t heard from since graduation in ‘92. I suddenly went from circle of soccer moms… to a whole new social circle (and growing daily).

You ever run into someone you haven’t seen for a while in a restaurant and you are like “Wow what a small world”? Well this takes that to a whole new level.

So, if you are feeling lonely this holiday, or just want try something new – give Facebook a try because you never know who you might find.

Can’t find anyone you know… I’ll be your friend… just send me a request saying David sent me.

The more the merrier right?

Happy Holidays!
