Well it has finally happened. there is enough of us on FaceBook to make a separate group on there. I know what you are thinking "No! not the data mining, evil, corporate machine that is FcukFace"!!!
Sadly it is true.
As you can see this tribe is getting a post every few months at best. Most people are checking their facebook account daily and we can keep a bit better connected that way right now.
If you don't have an account make a fake one like I did. When you go to sign up and it asks for your real full name, most people assume that will be hidden and they can make a nickname. Well that is the catch with facebook. Most people us their real name . I don't because I put "Tall" as my first name and "Neil" as my second. Everyone who I really know still finds me, and it is still a bit more private so your mom /employer/George Bush will have a bit harder time finding you.
Just a thought.
If however you want to protest this move. Well post some shit here. Put up new events. Add some new pics. Send some messages to people and drag them back...maybe it just needs a little energy?

PS the FaceBook group is private so you can only find it if you know someone in it. If you want in..find me as per above and I can invite you in.

Re: FaceBook- the evil corporate giant takes over
Mon, December 3, 2007 - 8:18 PMI hear what you're sayin' Neil. Not a lot of energy going into the Tribe thing. It served us for a long while and now, it seems it's time to move on. I rarely rarely check in here... only when extreme avoidance strategy is needed. I say we keep it here anyways. It seems to be a really good place for Burning Man plans, announcements etc... it's okay if it's a bit sleepy.
I am so so so not wanting to join FaceBook!! AAaacckkk but know that I've missed a lot of key information by not being on there...
I'll look you and my sista up if i ever do join the whole darn slew of people who have been sucked in... maybe there's a good reason for it. Maybe when the shit hits the fan FaceBook will be the network that helps us all survive... not sure.. i think Tribe is a bit more likely. There are such resourceful folks over here.
love ya'll westcoast village... the name is so limiting too now... why not open it up since we are all over and everywhere at once anyways. Why be limited by geography?
smooches to all!
