I have an account on Google+ and have looked at it perhaps 10 times total, yet I still get a new follower everyday.\u00a0 WTH?<\/p>\n<p>So I do not tweet more then twice a week, mostly ignore facebook and we have already covered google+.\u00a0 So happened? I &#8230;\u00a0 just&#8230; dont &#8230; care.\u00a0 I think there is SocMed overload and I hit it a few months back and I also found I&#8217;m not as social as I used to be.\u00a0 I was hitting meetups once a week, now I do not remember the last meetup I went to that I spent more then a few min at.\u00a0 So yup, I&#8217;m becoming unsocial.<\/p>\n<p>And that is how it should be I think.<\/p>\n<p>If you are spending time on social media sites and doing more in social life in real life, then good deal. I would be concerned if people are spending time on socMed sites but not doing anything IRL.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, not the big realization here, but just one of those things were I noting how SocMed sites and IRL should be connected.\u00a0 Thats a good thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s kinda of funny.
