Jeordam Posted February 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Heh....right? I just can't get past the whole "Look at me!!!!" aspect of social media. I get it...I really do. It is a valuable tool. However at the same time, it just seems too attention-whore-ish for me. Hence, why I don't do it. ~Jeordam 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shqueeves Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Welcome @Jeordam to the Shard. Have an upvote, and be warned about cookies. They bring puns with the Intent of Ruining people And I don't blame you for not social media-ing well. I only have it to stay updated on friends' lives. I never post anything 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, why I don't do it. ~Jeordam I think it - like many things - are more complex than that. Sure, it often turns into a me-fest, but there is value in social media - beyond just connecting with one's friends. I won't try to convert you or anything, I myself am not terribly active on my own accounts, but I recognize it can be useful (for information, for social studies, for gauging interest, for raising awareness, etc.). So if you are aware of these things and it still feels too person-centric to you (which it might, it very much depends on the kind of people you have around), then I'll get off your hair. But if this sounds somewhat new, maybe you can (choose to) see social media in a different light. It's certainly not going away 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
