Re: <nettime> Facebook

I'm on it because there are a number of new media artists/writers/etc. 
including myself who form somewhat of a community - it's a way to 
distribute work, especially if one's not in academia or media industry.
It's brutally flawed but also useful and it gives more scope to textual 
work than Instagram.
