1. Tuesday Thingers - Too Much Networking?


Welcome to Tuesday Thingers, hosted by Wendi at Wendi's Book Corner. This week is all about networking, and whether there is too much of it. Join in and tell us what you think!


Questions: How do you feel about social networking sites? Do you have any you like more than others? Are there any you don't like? Do you have any that you don't associate with your blogs and/or book reviewing? If you could only belong to one of these sites, which one would it be and why?

My Answers: I really like the social networks I've joined. Like twitter for instance, I like that a lot more than I expected to. I thought it would be silly-I mean really, what's the point of a 140 character mini-post? I don't know, but it's fun. :)

I would have to say Twitter is my favorite right now. But to be fair, I haven't completely figured out how to efficiently use the other sites I've joined. I have trouble with a lot of the "friending". In fact, I've been meaning to post my info here so others can find me.

Twitter is linked to my main blog, but I use it occasionally for my review blog. Shelfari, Library Thing and FriendFeed are linked to my review blog...I think there is one more but I can't think of what it may be at the moment...oops.

Right now Twitter is my favorite because it's so easy to use. I think I would like Facebook, but I haven't joined yet because I'm not sure how secure it is. Also, I'd like to be able to peek into the lives of my old friends but I'm not 100% sure I want to rekindle any friendships. Doesn't that sound snotty? I'm sorry, it's just it was so long ago and I was always a little different. I don't know if I could really relate to anyone.
