Is this thing on?
So here I go. Cutting through the cheese of social media.
You may have found me or my blog through one of those “social media applications”–or as people in the “industry” like to shorten to “apps”– that likes to end in “r” minus the vowel. Flickr, Tumblr, Dopplr, Twitter, oh wait, that last one remembered the “e”. Does that make it unhip? Is twitter already unhip? And what’s up with Plurk?
I digress.
So, why am i cutting the social media cheese? Because, frankly, this is all fairly new to me. And I tend to approach it with an outsiders’ innocent and naivety. Sometimes perceived as “socially media retarded”, but mostly just honest, with a touch of sarcasm. Did i say touch? More like a smack.
So if you are just as confused as I am by all this social media hoopla and what it means, or you aren’t and you just enjoy making fun of me, join me in my journey for the search for those missing vowels. Or is that vowls?

I’m in complete agreement with you. I’m all for “social media” and “personal branding”… but I still can’t fathom the usefulness of Twitter…
