The Pope is up with technology. Yes, THE Pope Benedict XVI himself. First he created the Vatican YouTube channel this past January in an effort to "help establish relationships with Catholics from around the world".

Now he's on Facebook and he's looking for friends - and this after warning that while Facebook and other social media sites give us a way to foster friendships and understanding it also "can isolate people and marginalize others".

Visit the Pope online and get the Facebook application.

I think the Pope and the Vatican are quite progressive. They are thinking outside of the box as they try news way to bring followers back to the fold.
