A couple of days ago, I got caught up in a discussion with a complete stranger on Facebook.  We had both commented on a mutual friend, Stuart’s status, regarding his loathing for all the sports coverage in the media here.  The stranger was called Paul and we discussed our love of tennis and Wimbledon.

The next morning I was tagged on Facebook by my online buddy, Emily.  It transpired that Paul was also an old school friend of her’s (though she had no connection to my friend Stuart!) and she was thrilled that her two FB friends had connected via a third party!  I was quite amazed at the connection, and Paul and I started up another discussion under Emily’s status.  It turned out that Paul had since discovered yet another common link, my old school friend, Mark.  We found all this very amusing and decided to become Facebook friends ourselves!  It’s definitely a small world!

I like to participate in the Follow Friday meme on Twitter and, when setting up MammaKerr, I envisaged using a Follow Friday meme on my blog. Initially, I anticipated using site reviews of the blogs and sites I like to follow. Indeed, I did do a couple of blog posts on this last year. However, I’ve not yet been able to get into my “blogging groove” and so, sadly, this has not become a regular fixture on my blog.

I love Twitter, and I like to participate in the Follow Friday meme.  I thought it would be a great idea to incorporate the Follow Friday meme into my Mamma Kerr blog.  Therefore, every Friday I will feature a website that I recommend you check out.

Today, I’d like to introduce you to a fantastic website, set up by my good friend, James Spence – The Cat Comic.
