When is too early to FB?

I have a modern dilemma- one of my son's little buddies wants to "friend" me on FB. I'm thinking...no......Nooooo...NOOOO! (or at least not until I get my privacy settings really fine tuned.)

Anyhow, I'm thinking 9 is awfully young to have a FB account- (thankfully my 9 year old has no interest in Social Media, yet...but it's coming!) What do you think? is there a "magic age" when social media use is appropriate? 

I almost always err to the side of keeping my child innocent as long as possible, limiting computer use is at the top of my list.

Nooooo, I'm not saying that using computers is bad (that would be pretty hypocritical of me, FB group girl) I'm simply trying to get an idea of how my son's generation is digesting modern technology.

New Metalsmiths Unite Tees!

after thinking about it for a very long time I finally sat down tonight to create a Tee shirt design for my group "Metalsmiths Unite".

(if you don't know what Metalsmiths Unite is...the abbreviated version is that it is a metalsmithing community that I founded in 2008 on facebook. It's become a really interesting and dynamic community- one that merits cool tee shirts!)



Here is the link to the listing: http://skreened.com/metalsmithstees/mu-2-chain-and-flux?direction=asc&field=order&query=&start=0&count=20

I've got the design up on my new Shop I've opened on Skreened.com called "Metalsmithstees". I will be posting more designs soon! (including one with the original Metalsmiths Unite Bench Pin avatar!

ciao- M
