New Facebook Page
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010Just a heads up to any RSS subscribers. I’ve created a Facebook Fan page for Idealist Cafe, so if you’re on Facebook and it’s your thing, feel free to connect with me over there. Also, if you’re reading here, but don’t follow me on Twitter, you can check me out there too.

Also, if we haven’t connected yet, drop me a comment and I’ll be sure to read your blog or follow your Twitter.
