Social Network Overload

OK, I’m on Google+ now. So I’m on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn.

Facebook I almost never use. Not sure why, just never got hooked on it. If I want to post pictures I usually do it here.

I used to be primarily a Twitter guy. Twitter worked well for me for quite a while as a mechanism to just have a general sense of what a small group of friends are doing. But over time, most of those people fell off Twitter. So now on Twitter I’m primarily following bloggers that I like. But if none of my friends are actively on Twitter, posting something to Twitter is pointless. And I follow the bloggers via RSS so Twitter is somewhat redundant. It’s primary purpose seems to be to circumvent the NY Times pay wall, but there’s NYTClean for that. So Twitter is slowly dying for me.

LinkedIn is just a work tool. I don’t really do anything social with it.

So that leaves me with Google+. Some of my friends seem to have migrated from Twitter to Google+. So I’ll give it a shot.

Maybe I’m just not that social…
