Personally, whilst acknowledging this, I’m an anti-facebook person, not a Luddite but I’m hugely cautious about Social Media.? Someone I know titles it “The Work of The Devil”? certainly you need to be ultra careful re spam, hacking & posting trips out before you go – ie advertising you’ll not be at home etc etc.? Be careful with images as I understand that FB try to claim copyright on them – make them relatively small, low ppi too [72ppi max] & embed copyright or copyright symbol in each image.? I believe that any embedding in the EXIF is stripped upon uploading.? -? As is said .....? read it all in the small print ... Zzzzzzzz? If I had a website then I’d link to that in FB. ? Best of luck Roy, with whatever you decide. ? Don’t forget that the youngsters of today rush into things without a care for the consequences – I have 2 youngsters [approaching 50 ?] ? Take care ?

At least mine are careful, but I'm sure that my teachings had nothing to do with it.??

To the best of my knowledge, nothing has replaced Flickr, I know I’m still semi-active there, but I’d be a lot more active, if I had time for my photography. ?When I look there is plenty of new content to view. ?If it works for you, use it. ?I saw a couple replies about using Facebook, that’s the absolute worst way to share photographs. ?I have also noticed that the Nikon-DSLR group on Facebook that was started by people on this list is now basically dead. In addition to Flickr, I use Smug-Mug, but that’s for my commercial site. There is also Instagram (which is owned by Facebook), and it’s very popular, but it’s also very limiting compared to Flickr. ?I have an account, but I mainly use it for iPod Touch/iPhone photography. For me the reenacting season is starting up this next weekend. ?While I’ll have my Nikon D800 with my, my primary focus will no longer be photographing the events, it’s going to be doing living history, and talking about the history of Photography, and specifically photography during the Civil War. ?One of the big reasons for this is so that I don’t have so many photographs to process after an event. ?
