Social Networking

I've never been too much into the social networking crowd. I do have a Myspace and Facebook page, and I am also on Twitter and another site called SocialVibe. Although I am on these sites, I hardly log on to them and talk to others. I think it's a great way for people to get in touch, but for me, I find myself getting burned out on it. I wonder if at somepoint, there will be people who swing back to the old days and start writing letters. I don't think it will get that far, but I think there might come a time when more people simply email again rather than message on a social networking site. Maybe not though, maybe I'm just tired of it. I'm not saying I abhore these sites, I think I'm just missing the old ways of things, although I should be one to talk, I met my boyfriend online.

  1. That is a very interesting thought, if we will ever go back to how communication was done in the old days. I hope that the concept of writing letters does not completely disappear because I like receiving hand written letters from my family and friends who live far away. I think that it is a nice gesture when we see the hand writing of somebody we really care about. I think that social networking will remain, but I also agree with you that sometimes it is nice to just go back to how it used to be.
