Holy Social Networking Overload BATMAN!!

Well, last week, hell last month, was pretty unproductive.  After the July long weekend, where I got more sun in 4 days than I've had in the last 4 months, I did sweet-piss-all when it came to my project.  Oops.  I'm feeling it this week.  Shouldn't have taken the Mulligan.  Either way, although I'm not behind (I'll never be behind), I'm definitely not ahead.

I think part of my being behind has to do with diving head-first into Google+ and Twitter (@IsItBrokenYet).  I've been pretty hardcore procrastinating before, but now it's taken to a new level.  I'm kind of excited to see where these 2 new services take me, even if it's nowhere.  Now, instead of just one website running in the background at work, I have 3; which is fine by me.  It's not like there's a lot of activity on the 2 new ones....yet.

If you're not signed on to Google+ yet....DO IT!  My buddy Tom put it best,

"The 'follow' behavior of Twitter, the general style of Facebook, and the sharing model of Tumbler. The photo features foreshadow an emphasis on photographers; the post formatting and editing an emphasis on blogging. News in the form of Sparks, and micro-communities in the form of Circles.
Google+ is an innovative culmination of so many services around the web."


...and a reply on the comment,

"Not only that but the big seller for me is that nothing I ever post on here is owned by Google."

BONUS!!  I get to post, and keep the rights to my own material and ideas...YAY!  (Not like I post a lot of original stuff on the web, but now that I have a medium for posting that's a little more protected, I may just start.)

Although I'm not going to delete my FaceBook account....I did spend 5 years building up that network, I'll definitely post less and link to a few other accounts.   


Moral of the story, if you're not following me on Twittah, or would like me to follow you....get on fixing that...and....if you're not already on Google+, get on that.
