Aspergers/Autism Facebook Group

Post Reply New Topic

I'm creating a "secret" facebook group for aspergers and autism (this means it won't show up to other people as one of your groups). What should I call it? I just created it and its called "Autism Spectrum" but I just realized maybe I could make a more catchy phrase. I was thinking about calling it "wrongplanet on facebook", but thats kindof unoriginal and its not created by the wrongplanet people. But then again, theres not rule against my using it. Perhaps something like "I was born on the wrong planet". But I want to make something original. Something to do with space? Time? Play on words? I'd like some ideas. So let me know and once I create it I will put a link here for it and you can join. Basically I want to see a smaller, more community-like support group for those with AS than we have her at Wrongplanet.

What's Facebook?

Perhaps they do not have it or at least have it extensively in Australia, but it is big in the US and the UK (though I dont know just how big it is in the UK, I've seen many people from there on it). Come to think of it, I've never seen an Australian on it. But go to www.facebook.com

its a social networking site like myspace. you create a profile and can joing groups and things to discuss stuff, and write friends messages. Friends can look at one anothers profiles, and people within the same network can as well. Facebook is extremely popular and it is unusual around here for someone not to have a profile on it.

This is a great idea...I forgot you could do this. I can't join an AS group on Facebook because I will get kicked out of the military, but please PM me when it's created and I'll send you my name

By the way I don't think the name should be anything "clever" or "catchy"...just a regular "Asperger's" group for those of us on WP who don't want others to know

Well, since I can't join MySpace, I'll check out this 'FaceBook' thing.

EDIT: Oh wait, it's for people who go to high school and college...

No, if you have a valid e-mail address anyone can join (although I think it might have to be gmail or hotmail addresses only, possible yahoo)

Oh, I'll sign up then. Gah, I have to be 18!
