I suppose I should try it, but considering how often I blog ... Maybe not. ;-)Deb Salisbury, Magic Seeker and Mantua-Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01513482264195697450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938186989777253556.post-60148327976565952982011-01-17T22:02:08.559-06:002011-01-17T22:02:08.559-06:00I’m sort of a hermit myself, Deb.

It’s so easy to use and update and keep up with friends and industry peers plus it doesn’t take up all the time that Twitter does, and the ‘security problems’, well, I’ve never experienced them. I’m sure they’ve plagued others, but even if it were true for all, I’d just opt not to share too much personal info (not that a professional ever should).Lindsey Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398211816930946648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938186989777253556.post-36777903094507446482011-01-16T10:27:10.143-06:002011-01-16T10:27:10.143-06:00LOL, Dana!

I have a FB account I don't really post to. I just use it to keep up with other people. I have LJ and Myspace accounts because I had to sign up to comment on other people's pages. I'm staying far far away from Twitter because it looks like it'd be addictive and I don't need another time suck keeping me from writing.B.E.
