@Nita,

I have been fairly tardy when it comes to loading photos on it.

G’day to you. I think you may be interested in reading another Facebook thread and my comment in it. See > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/03/18/password-stealing-virus-targets-facebook-users/#comment-11673 and also note the humorous video in the comment section.

It’s all about choices we make between our ears. :)

Yes TT, it has been much too long, and now I will have to go back and see all of the helpful information that I’ve missed

I am glad to hear that you are doing well, and simply love how you put it, ‘ I’m choosing’. It is alot about choice, isn’t it. :)

Love and peace to you too!

Hmm, this is interesting TT. I am relatively new to facebook and most of the various applications creep me out! The latest one is one where you can find out who is viewing your profile! This one sounds interesting. I have been fairly tardy when it comes to loading photos on it.

@Bernadine
It’s been such a long time and it’s so good to see your avatar. :)

I’m not a Facebook user and I have always found the Facebook site itself to be “bland” when it comes to design. In contrast Silverlight deign and appearance is very appealing.

Thanks so much for sharing your first impressions of Silverlight. I do hope you find a away to access group pages.

I’m choosing to be well and happy and hope your are too. ;)
Love and peace

Hello Timethief,

After reading your post and watching the video, I decided to Microsoft Silverlight 4 Beta and the Silverlight Client for Facebook. (thank you for providing the links and making it so easy). I must admit that I am a pretty heavy facebook user, both for family & friends, as well as networking for blogging.

I have to say that I am astounded! I really like the appearance – it feels somehow “cleaner” than the regular facebook page (if that makes sense). I really enjoy how you can look at a feed view or a grid view. ( I think I’m leaning a bit towards the grid view myself)

I also really like the ‘Events’ view, and how it includes in date order format, events as well as each of your friends Birthday.

The only thing that I don’t see, (and of course I’m still exploring – so I could be missing it), is how to access a group page, which to me is very important.

Overall, I think it’s great (and if not for the group access), I think I would nearly use it exclusively.

Thanks so much for the wonderful & helpful information you always give & hope you are doing well.
