There have been times when I joined social media sites because I felt pressured. Like you I felt compelled to join Facebook and I just couldn’t get into it (I haven’t checked account in ages). To me in order to effectively network you have to choose a medium you are comfortable using. I have found Twitter to be the most effective because I can quickly share and exchange ideas. I hated feeling obligated to use sites just because people suggested them so now I have narrowed them down to significantly smaller number. I want to use sites that add quality to my life. By the way, I am loving this site too—girl, when do you sleep? Keep up the great work and congrats on making CNN too :) Jamie,
