I live on the opposite coast of canada from where I grew up. So Facebook is a pretty good way to keep up with the folks I've been missing for 16 years, since they all hang out there anyway. Twitter I used to think was kind of stupid, but I am getting used to following hashtags for certain topics I may follow at any given time.

Being an introvert in my off-computer world, the social sites let me control the amount of social interaction from day to day.

But I find it kind of funny that book readers are now starting to be "social" devices. My two favorite sedentary hobbies of knitting and reading used to grant me "antisocial" status. Now, young folk seem to only want to do any of these things if it can be a tweetable thing hehe.

My inner Luddite has not yet embraced the cellphone world. I am in the minority of folks who not only have never owned a mobile phone but wouldn't know how to "text" someone. I am at home much of the time, and my husband has a desk job, rendering me to not really be in the demographic of cellphone users, not even recreationally. I couldn't stand to have people bugging me all the time. If people have to try again when I am not home, so be it.
