Social Networking

Social networking seems to be streaming from all facets of our lives. We have progressed from what is now considered a simple and everyday use of emails and text messages to setting up our profiles on LinkedIn, ZoomInfo, MySpace, Facebook, and can't forget the blogs to the ever so quickly catching momentum Twitter. I suppose a lot of jobs have been created at companies to keep them up to date with all of the online internet media available. We certainly can find ourselves rather up to our elbows in the middle of all of it if we aren't careful.

Personally, I find it difficult to be on the computer and not take a peek at the tweets and facebook, to say the least. Or how about the blackberry browsing in between errands or waiting for an appointment. Yes, technology is invading our lives in many facets and what fun we are having!

Being rather new to twitter, I am trying to learn the terminology and variations of tweets. Today the topic has been hash tags. The words can be so usual, it is almost like learning a foreign language.

The benefit of all of these networking tools is the ability to keep in touch with people, news in the world around us. We've come a long way since the pony express days!

Enjoy your technology!
