How connected are you?
Written by andy on March 7th, 2009 in Software.
Does anybody remember the good ol’ days, where dial-up was the norm, social networking was that red-headed stepchild nobody liked, and status updates were simply non-existent?
I know I do, and to be honest, I miss them.
Many companies these days are finding new ways of letting others know what you’re doing; Twitter being a relatively recent (albeit successful) one, and a lot of mobile devices produced support the services.
From Facebook to MySpace, nearly everybody today is, as some people put it, ‘connected’.

I remember those days as well but I am not sure I miss them. I miss the simplicity of being anonymous but being up to date on friends is a good trade off I think. Tis easy to unplug if you really don’t want to be “connected” but then you my find you are “out of the loop” as they say…

Avid reader, love your stuff, BUT – you aren’t going to get a huge followship on twitter if you update it as much as you do! You are off the charts: http://followcost.com/
