Here I go again blogging about social media. Its like I can't help myself.
Recently, due to overload, I took a hiatus from facebook and to keep it real I posted an announcement so I would not be tempted. It was actually refreshing not having that distraction nagging at me. What is the purpose again? To keep up with people and friends? The same people you would not otherwise connect with regularly or at all except for the goodness of facebook?
A new site about web meetings is on the horizon. Wait, knowing me, the site is as old as dirt. You post a topic and agenda. Then people request to "attend." A comment was made about "good'ol human interaction" needing to be founded.
The jury is stil out on Linkedin. It's certainly maintained as a professional connection point. What I dont get though, when you log in, there is an auto list of "people you might know" but when you "click" to invite them, you are asked for their email.
Hey, maybe that's a good thing. If you know someone well enough to have their email on hand you should be linkedin with them.

I know what you mean about social media. I love Twitter, although I keep my tweets to 2 or 3, and only check it in the morning and at night for a few minutes. I can't get facebook so no worries there. As for Linkedin. Yeah, not sure if there is any real value in it or not. So far even joining industry groups, getting recommendations has brought me nothing in the form of hard cold cash. And yes, I would like some of that...
