Crab is one year older, yay!! And so the gang went to Brix to celebrate. I ordered a grilled veal loin with corn risotto, it wasn't too bad, except it tasted exactly like the dish I ordered there for lunch last time. Different ingredients, same taste, isn't it amazing? The company was great tho, great long time friends, some I haven't seen in a while. It's a shame we get together less and less nowadays. Everyone is busy getting on with life (well except me, I am pretty free, for now).
I kind of miss the good old days; I know I know, we are not really that old... but I feel old, esp within the last year. Part of the reason is probably because after switching jobs, I really do have much more free time on my hands. I'm no longer glued to my laptop *after* work and on weekends. Unfortunately I don't know what to do with all this time. I never was an active or adventurous type of person, and always buried myself in school and office work. I would even go as far to say that I define myself through work. A workaholic? Not really, I am lazy by nature; maybe I'm just a square peg in a world full of round holes.
Anyways, inevitably the table conversations come to the topic of Facebook. Seems like this is pretty hit right now, everyone is on Facebook (well again, except me). But isn't this a souped up Friendster? Apparently not, or so they keep telling me. Is there really that much to do on Facebook? OK, well, I am slightly intrigued now. Being in the IT industry shouldn't I be jumping on top of all the latest techno fads? Actually, what I am interested to know is what makes Facebook a success while Friendster a flop? I wonder if there are any case studies done on this... would be worth a read.

First. If you had the free time, you should have came out for dessert!
Second. I haven't joined facebook yet either.
Yea. I feel people are so busy nowadays too. Funny, I feel really free relatively to the gang. Well, just wait till I have a TV, then you guys can come up more to chill, like the "good old days".
I think friendster was quite hyped for a year? Wait and see how long facebook can last. I think it's really just like ICQ vs MSN msger. Another product always take over after a certain time.
You are relatively free? How can that be when you have 2 million and 2 things to do? ;)
I have 3 things to do - work, study, and play :P
So, did you like it so far dude?
Sometimes i just dunno why we're so occupied in life??? Looking at the things I do, i consider myself "free" but where'd all the time GO???
