Day 3, My social media

Well I really fail on today's blogging prompt ...tell us about your social media.  Here's the lineup and its not too impressive.
  • Facebook...this is probably the only one I really use much of.  I am a total FB creeper.  I love to keep up with old friends, classmates, coworkers etc on FB but I am so bad about actually making many status entries myself.
  • Twitter...I do have an account but I think I have used it twice.  I really don't understand the appeal.  Maybe I don't really get how to use it right.  To me its just as easy to send a text message to someone, I don't see the advantage of the Twitter platform.  Today over at Kelly's Korner she was talking about how much she likes Twitter and how it gives her a chance to have an adult conversation when she is home with her kids.  So maybe one of you could give me some Twitter tips...I obviously don't use it to its fullest potential.
  • Pinterest...to me this doesn't seem like social media but Jenna included it so I will too.  I do LOVE Pinterest but I seem to keep pinning ideas and not spending enough time to actually try them.  My favorite things to look for are new recipes (I often use my church small group as my guinea pigs!), activities for the kids and crafts.  Its the craft things that I seem never to get the time to try out.
As far as the question of my favorite websites, that could be an entire post so I think I'll save it for another time.  This has been fun folks.  Thanks for hanging in there with me thus far this week!

  4. I didn't "get" Twitter until I just started using it. My best friend kept telling me how much she loved it...and she challenged me to spend 30 minutes total on it daily for a week. She recommended 5 minute bursts throughout the day. And somehow in using it, I began to love it! I love the short bits of information, and I love when people share links to interesting articles or videos as well. For me, it's Facebook without the games and all the photos.

  5. Hi Sandy, I am visiting from Jenna's site. I too love Pinterest. I have even tried a few of the stuff I have pinned, and then started a board called 'Pinned It, Did It' where I write a comment on how well the project/recipe did or did not turn out. Please stop by my blog, leave a comment, and if you like what you see, follow me. Thanks.
