I don't think you are alone, Chatty. I really miss it when I can't get in to see what's going on. Sometimes we can't get a connection to the internet when camping. And that's awful. Love FB and love Boomer Women Speak. These are the only sites I visit.

I spend a lot of time on Facebook because I have my personal page and then I have the 'fan' page. My favorite things are the pictures. I rarely chat.

I just checked and I had already 'liked' the NABBW page.

Here are my pages if you want to check them out.

http://www.facebook.com/donnashepherd (personal)
http://www.facebook.com/donnajshepherd (fan)

I'm afraid I got totally immersed in Facebook, too, and forgot to check in here on this forum for a while. I suppose we could chat and start threads on the Facebook page for NABBW, too, if we wanted.

Anne, are the sole administrator for that page? I have a hard time keeping up with the changes Facebook makes. Just when I have it all figured out, they change it!

Hi DonnaJ,

No, I am not an administrator on the NABBW Facebook page. This is a big frustration for me. I have several times shared with Dotsie the info from the FB folks on how she can add me as an admin. And then I would delete her. But she hasn't yet done it.

As Facebook becomes more critical, I get more and more frustrated by this. If I were to start a new Facebook page for NABBW, then I'd have to ask everyone who's "liked" the current site to move over... As you can see, it is a bit of a mess.

Yes, it's an easy fix. I see there are over a thousand members. That would be tough to start all over.

It could be done however! Might take some time but would be worth it don't you think?

I talked to Dotsie earlier this week, and we reviewed the steps she needs to take to make me an admin. She said she would follow-up this week.

so before I start creating a new site, I am giving her a few more days to click the link and make me an admin...

Otherwise, yes, it IS worth it to create a new site - but what would I call it? "The NEW NABBW"? Just seems to me that having two sites called "National Association of Baby Boomer Women" will be VERY confusing...

I've seen people move a site successfully, though. One is an interest site that I'm on, and the other was a guy I know whose account got hacked and someone pretending to be him friended all his friends. Now THAT was a mess!

I still won't be getting around to subscribing to FAcebook. I have enough already in terms of personal activities.

Besides my family and closest friends aren't into FB. So, no point.

Seems to me it's somewhat harder to find the FB NABBW page. It might just be me, but I think a new name wouldn't hurt or something tagged onto the original name.

Maybe make it different than simply a copycat of here, so to speak. Just some thoughts. I might be wrong.

Thanks Sandpiper, and anyone else who wants to contribute to this conversation.

I'm giving Dotsie til the end of this month to figure out how to make me an admin of the current NABBW Facebook site. I've given her instructions on how to do it several times, and many have noted that it isn't difficult.

If I don't become an admin on the current site by the end of the month, I will have to create a new FB site and then somehow invite all of the thousand-plus people who have friended that site to move to the new site.

Any suggestions anyone has for a new name for the new site are certainly welcome. smile
