“BTW I’m not a poker 
” she said to me. I really don’t care. I poke because you can. Really, what’s the point anyway?
I remember being in high school and having girls poke me in the arm or back while passing in the hallway. It was many years later I figured out, or more likely I was told, they were flirting with me. Facebook poking – not the same. Or is it?
I poke because I am also the type of Facebooker who stops by a friend’s wall on occasion and posts simply, “Drive by Facebooking. Hope all is well.” No flirt intended. In fact I poke both male and female friends – and I’m only wired one way which would preclude flirting only with females. Here again I Facebook poke the ladies with no flirt intended.
Trust me, I don’t flirt with Jeremy Blanton.
Whether or not you are a Facebook poker Facebook has made it easier to poke. So poke away. They also have made it easier to suggest friends to your connections. And for you chatterrers, there’s that convenient chat button, too.
The good thing about Facebook being run by young dreamers instead of seasoned business operators is you never know what useless or useful addition they will make next. The jury is out on this one.
You’re the jury so let’s hear your opinion:
