♥ Facebook has become a colloquial term for a lot of those generation y and x kids, but over the past few years Facebook has been inundated with baby boomers and even generation z kids. This itself should show just how Facebook has become such a positive site which joins those from all races, religions and even generations. Through the site you can create your own profile page, find and add friends from all over the globe, group your friends and change your privacy settings so certain people can see certain things you post on your profile, compare the things you like with your friends as well as access to thousands of applications in which you can play games individually, as a team with your friends or even tournament type games against your friends. The site was originally created as a social network and if you are a part of a university or recognised network, you can also join a network as to get in touch with those you may see on a daily basis or have lost contact with over the years. There are some negatives if you are new to the site especially in regards to controlling and changing your privacy so you should get to know your way around the Facebook Help Centre as there is advice available from Facebook (which sometimes isn't helpful, but can be). Like everything on the site, you can post your opinion so if you are stuck and need help or want to share your opinion, search the Help Centre for guidance in where or how to do this or post something and someone will answer you. ♥

♥ I have been a member for a number of years and the changes made to the site have been nothing but positive. There are a variety of opportunities to earn points which are then exchanged into money (in the form of a cheque). Some of the opportunies in which you earn points include online shopping with linked sites (dollars spent equal points), emailed survey opportunites (which are tailored to your interests you submit to the site) as well as Web clicks (opening a link and looking at a particular website). It is important to check emails frequently (as surveys have expiry dates) and bring points over from your MyOpinions account to your RewardsCentral account to take advantage of summarising all your points in one site and being one step closer to collecting enough points to exchange them for your cheque. ♥

♥ My experience at The Bayview Hotel (Bar and Dining) was nothing but positive. The staff are always friendly and approachable and the eating area was kept clean and tidy. Apart from cake, meals are also available. Waiting time for meals did not exceed 15 minutes and the dining room closes when the gaming room does which means there are always opportunities for late lunches and dinners. ♥
