I suspect a lot of that is twittering. As in, "What I'm doing right now is trying to cause an accident and injure as many pedestrians as possible."<BR/><BR/>And...in my state, this is perfectly legal. Cell phone use while driving? Yep, we're fine with that.<BR/><BR/>Is that crazy or what?G.M.

Is it the next step in communication or simply a new version of the precious youthful belief that their every thought is important? Having kids or reaching age 30'll knock that right out of you, but until then, media (think reality TV) and technology are having a heyday with that phase most young Americans go through and grow out of it.Jessica Loureyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11157662092822156124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-17928926933963590992009-02-24T09:46:00.000-05:002009-02-24T09:46:00.000-05:00I post to Twitter occasionally but I'm with you, F...I post to Twitter occasionally but I'm with you, Felicia: I imagine the interest in what I'm doing all day is low to nonexistent. <BR/><BR/>I am just getting the hang of Facebook, sort of, apart from the "gift" thing...it helps me keep in touch with people I'd otherwise not hear from until Christmas or until I see them at conferences. And by the way, I saw on Facebook that you're preparing a package for Hollywood? Care to share?<BR/><BR/>MySpace I absolutely cannot navigate my way around.G.M.
