Weaning.
June 1st, 2010
While I’m not under the impression that Facebook and Twitter are inherently evil, I’ve been kind of put-off by them both as of late. Both sites operate under the guise of social interaction, but sitting where I sit, it seems to be the reverse – lots of talk about what others are doing, and not much discussion beyond that.
And I’m just as guilty.
That’s why I’m declaring this week “Freedom From Social Networking Week”. And even with that declaration, I’m cheating. I vow not to contribute to the fray by posting anything, but that doesn’t mean I won’t be watching. I have to stay in the loop somehow, you know?
Perhaps I’m cautiously optimistic that this will help me redirect my musings elsewhere, such as this site.
In the meantime, I’ve still got 315 pages left of Catch-22, a book most of you probably already read in high school.
