I recently joined Facebook just to learn more about it. The main tool I use to connect with colleagues and friends in LinkedIn. However, with some interesting news stories highlighting Facebook, I decided to peep into this world.

I really liked how it easily sucked in my contacts from my yahoo account and cross-referenced it with members on Facebook already. Out pops my sister, who is considerably younger than I…

We won’t go into specific numbers but take my word for it. I choose to link into her as I rarely get to hang out with her in the real world, she is all the way in Toronto, Canada.

A couple of days later, I get an email in my Adobe inbox to the effect of: “Hey sis…uh..strange seeing you here.” It was at that moment I realized the generation gap between me and my sis & her generation. At least my sister will admit to being related to me on Facebook.

Between busy travel schedules to Washington, Napa and global destinations such as Australia, the Baja and Europe, she expends the rest of her energy collecting wines, practicing “escape artist”-style cooking, and building what she hopes, one day, will be a real estate empire.
