Twittering: Communication/Networking Breakthrough or Obnoxious, Mindless Waste of Narcissistic Energy?
Check out this post on Walt Mueller’s (of CPYU) blog. Not sure where the cartoon came from.
“I’m taking you to the Twittersphere!”
So, what do you think? Regarding Facebook, MySpace, blogging, Twitter, etc, how do you see these “social networking sites” impacting our culture? Your family? Your life? Friend or foe?
I look forward to your comments, and hope to see the site become more interactive and conversational as you add your perspectives to mine and to one another’s.
(Thanks so much to my friend, Jimmy, for tweaking my website for the umpteenth time – this time to make it easier for folks to post comments.)

I totally agree with you about connecting to people through technology. In my opinion, it has to affect our lives in a positive way other than- just whining/complaining or writing a diary of “what I did today” . We need to use it to address important issues and/ or to build real “live” friendships. One thing I had as a New Year’s resolution was to reconnect with old friends, neighbors and family members. I can’t say I have gotten together with all the people I would like to but I am keeping that in my mind as I use this thing with the big eye looking into others’ lives. Keep up the good work ! I love your blogs. Very insightful.
