I made friends with some of my friends kids. Kind of funny, now I know more what their kids are up to then the parents do.

Ok...fess up! How many of us actually use Twitter?

I'm holding out.

I have no interest. Facebook is useful for reconnecting with people from my distant past the same way LinkedIn is useful for staying in touch with my professional network. Twitter is redundant since anyone who has a Twitter account is also on Facebook. I already had to filter a few people on Facebook who give GSS-level usless information in their status and update it constantly.

I just don't get the whole Facebook and Twitter thing. Linkedin makes sense for job connections.

I didn't get facebook either, but it's really cool for connecting with old friends that you lost touch with. A lot of my high school class is on there. Sometimes I get sucked into the many time wasters that they have on there too, which is sometimes bad and sometimes not so bad.

I've got a few of those. Problem is their relatives.

I know. Some people update it constantly and often times with trivial details about what they're doing. I usually only update my status when I think I have something mildly interesting to share and even then I'm pretty sure nobody gives a shit... :lol:
