In this busy time in our lives....it seems that we keep getting more info shoved at us....more messages, more emails, more junk mail, more phone calls....you get the drift.
Now we have social networking. Not sure what that really means? Well you are using it right now. Blogging was the beginning ......now there are many ways you can "keep in touch" by not really keeping in touch.
I am involved in this crazy stuff due to the impact these programs may have on our e-commerce store, www.showmecables.com . We are not sure what impact it will have, but we do not want to wake up in 2 years to find that our friends at google rank social networking at the top of their criteria for search results. So we waste time on this stuff. Hopefully it sells more patch cables.
If you would like to see the other networks that I need to review DAILY......here ya go...
1st there is facebook...you need to join face find me....Peter Foley St Louis
This one I understand.....it's basically a place where you keep in touch with others by posting remarks, pictures and videos of what is happening in your life.
2nd there is Linked In
This one is really more for business networking. You also need to join Linked In to see me. Again I am under my name and city. We also have a showmecables page....search under showmecables and we appear...you can join our page and hear about all of our companies information
3rd...you can join me at twitter
http://twitter.com/WebOptimization
This is a site that allows me to mini blog ....not sure why....but again, we need to do this stuff....we think!!
OK I think I am done.......Each day this consumes at least an hour. My concerns are:
Am I really keeping in touch with people?
If everyone is doing this....and millions are....at work no less.....and they are not doing it "for their company" then this is a big waste of productivity.
Gotta go......I need to Tweet.
