time to get personal

is it just me or has facebook, twitter and other social networks become VERY invasive!? I mean we no longer have to pic up the phone or meet up for coffee in order to catch up with friends, family and associates! All we have to do is log into our facebook accounts and with in 2 clicks and 3 seconds we find out their relationship status, thought pattern (via their status updates) and even know where they've been,. who they've been with, how they were doing it and why they were doing it!!

In times pass I have been guilty of participating in this adolescent behavior! Growing up I was always a very personal person and today I choose to return to my roots! By no means am I down playing these social networks because I believe they are vital at times. But was with anything; soical networks are good in doeses!

for now email, text, phone calls and blogging are as social as I will be!

  1. I agree that everything is best in moderation, but for someone as scatterbrained as myself fb really helps me to keep up with old and new friends who have scattered all over the darn place. I think ppl go a little overboard with the overly-personal things they share at times but I love being able to keep up with friends' adventures from afar!!! ♥

  4. I'm more prone to ducking and dogging phone calls...they are becoming much more uncomfortable for me... this is almost like a weird government social experiment gone bad...
