Limited Facebook return

I have taken the plunge and returned to Facebook. When I left it about a year ago I had no intention of returning. I just don't trust it as a platform. However, I felt that I was missing out on so much Sherlockian discussion that only seems to take place there.

So I have come up with a compromise. I have a new profile and have joined the relevant groups. However I will upload nothing in the way of pictures, I will accept no friend requests and will say and do nothing that isn't Sherlockian. Thus I deny Facebook anything especially personal or useful.

I am loitering around a few pages now. You can engage with me on the following pages:

• Sherlockology
• Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle Books
• The Undershaw Preservation Trust
• MX Publishing

The one upside to rejoining was that I discovered that someone had a made a post that was clearly designed to look like it was coming from me without actually saying that it was and therefore actually engaging in, effectively, identity theft. One lady was clearly confused and believed the comment to be from me.
