Social Experiment -- Day 1



Social Networking: The process of building online communities, often accomplished both through 'groups' and 'friends lists' that allow greater interaction on websites.
So this is my attempt at building my own online community. Guess I need to make a mark on the digital world somehow.
I am not the typical “social network” user. Yes, I have Facebook and Yes, I have Twitter, but I am surely not that much of an active participant on these sites as some people are. I don’t twiddle my hours of life away commenting and liking and retweeting nonsense to other “friends” who could most of the time care less what I am doing or saying or what ANYONE else is doing or saying. (Or at least they pretend like they could care less, but really they are creepers creepin up on FB and Twitter Profiles)
Maybe this whole “social network” is like when you were little and you had an imaginary friend and you would tell them all about your day and invite them to things and write them messages and talk with them. I guess that imaginary friends for most adults would be named either, Facebook or Twitter or .Blogspot.com, with the occasional weirdo who still calls theirs MySpace. Seriously though, what is the point of blogging and communicating on line. Don’t you know that everything, EVERYTHING, you say stays there FOR-EV-ER. 
Why am I doing this again?................
Well whatever the reason.....Here goes nothing.
I am going to attempt to entertain you with my random awkward thoughts for however long I can remember that I am actually doing this. Hope that my thoughts fuel your thoughts. There is nothing better than reading something and getting a great idea or some sort of new knowledge from it. Life is about growing and evolving (is this why I am doing this?).

I know that what I put on the internet stays there FOREVER. But seeing you write that just makes me think about that all over again. It's crazy that when we hit "delete" it truly never really deletes. Someone's got it! AHHH!
