A few days ago, Facebook allowed people to create their own facebook address (e.g. for business cards etc…) Myspace made this an integral part of their business model, and it was always a bit annoying that I didn't really know how to link people to my facebook profile. Well, now I can. And as the profile pic suggests, I'm happy about that. (that's my wife, by the way. She's happy too.)

The Jiggers Ceilidh Band personal facebook profile address is now http://www.facebook.com/ceilidhband

I've heard her album, and it's great. Excellent songs and really nice folk recordings interspersed with some of her other performance pieces, covers and instrumentals. Definitely worth buying, in my opinion.

If you're trying to sell something, advertisers tell you to include a clear call to action. I'm not taking a percentage or anything, but I'll give a clear call to action all the same. Are you ready? Here it comes…
