I know in the news, Facebook (FB) and Twitter is all the rage, but you know, I've learned that it takes a certain kind of person to be in it. I am not one of those special people. I love seeing my friends' cute pictures on Facebook and reading their quips on twitter, but most often people misunderstand them. It's a sort of soulless communication.
Also, there is another thing that I don't like about Facebook, it seems that once you've added someone on FB, the conversation stops there. They don't call you because they know what you are doing, or they have seen a side of you that they may not like, I am not just talking about my personal experiences, but these have become very common.
I rather meet up with folks, have a chat and a tea, you know what I'm saying?
Twitter can be fun. I sometimes find that some people are so witty and cheery and sardonic and I just love reading their stuff, but to what end?
Also, I hate spammers and they are rampant on twitter.
Next, like FB it just wastes too much time, and I really feel that I am growing duller by the day, because I am not reading books and concentrating and analyzing what I read in a deep and critical way.
So, finally I've broken away. And if any over you want to contact me, well email is always good. maryam@journalist.com
Now, if I can do the same thing for late night milk and cookies, I'd be really doing something big. :)
