Now that I've kinda caught up with today's forms of social media, I have to tell you that It's a little overwhelming. I've been trying to keep up every single day with the influx of emails, texts, voice mail, messages on my facebook wall and this blogsite and it's a bit much for this old gal. I suppose if I used my commute time to text or leave vm messages it would save some time when I got home, but since I have to put on my reading glasses to text that just doesn't seem safe while driving. Seriously scares me. Don't know how the youngin's do it even without reading glasses.
I need to determine which forms of communication are going to work for me and which ones are too time consuming to carry on with. Learning all of them has opened up a whole new world, most of which has been good. Adding quick comments to friends and family on their facebook pages is a great way to stay in touch without it soaking up too much time. Let's face it, our lives are busy and complicated and staying close to your friends is hard enough in the same city or workplace, but out of town is nearly impossible. The internet has given us back those friends even if it's small doses and that's a good thing. So, I'll keep plugging along this month doing my best to use all of my newly discovered forms of communication until I decide which I want to keep in my life and which ones I won't miss if I let them fade away.
