It's time to get rid of using those temporary Wharton email addresses and to start using the ones that look like this: first.last.wg08@wharton.upenn.edu. It's also time to make sure you are connected to the networking groups out there!
Facebook:
Those of you not on Facebook should sign up; there's quite a few of us out there now. Looks like Class 34 has a Facebook group instead of a Yahoo Group, which is a sign of the state of Yahoo and the rise of Facebook. The Facebook machine has sucked me in. I find myself spending more and more time on doing mindless things like poking people, taking crazy surveys, and yes, playing Texas Hold Em.
Here's a link to our Facebook group (Wharton Exec MBA (WEMBA) 32 West) if you aren't on yet:

Thanks to John K, who's Mr Facebook for our class. Oh yeah, and there are more Wharton related groups out there: Wharton School of Business, Wharton Entrepreneurs, WEMBA West, I Support Grade Non-Disclosure, and others. For you bloggers, there's also PicApp. Quick shot out there to our classmate Eval Gura, the CEO of PicApp. He will gladly give you a sticker to put on the back of your laptop. I had one but got a new laptop (a sweet Lenovo X300 with the solid state drive) so I gotta get another one.
LinkedIn:
The professional social network of choice also has some Wharton groups, such as Wharton Executive MBA Alumni, and Wharton Technology Network . There's a new Class 32 LinkedIn group I just started. Me and Guru are out there now, all by our lonesomes. :)
Here's a link if you are interested in joining the newly created Class32 LinkedIn group:

Google Groups:
"Kumbaya" is a group for Class 32 entrepreneurs that Gagan and I started for those interested in discussing startup company issues.
Here's a link to join:

The Lenovo X300 is nice, isn't it? :-) I figured I would need a LIGHT high-performance laptop with good battery life for my commute from Southern California to San Francisco [class 34], and recently got one too!
Chairman, just thought i would extend my good wishes on the BoB nomination and a great year of blogging. Hope you are enjoying your Bschool days. Cheers.
