blogging can be hard work.

I love having a blog. It’s great to have an outlet for stray thoughts that I want to share. It’s great for deep conversations that I want to have with someone, but I’m not sure who. It’s great for staying in touch– it’s amazing how close, as a reader, I can feel to an author […]

facebook & myspace.

I graduated from college a tad bit too early for social networking. Facebook wasn’t a twinkle in Zuck’s eye when I was in college, and Friendster wasn’t really even up yet. But being a tech-groupie I joined Friendster probably in 03/04. Then MySpace. And then, once I found my rutgers alumni email password, Facebook. What’s […]
