I have visited the Twitter site and have, for the time being, resisted the urge to open an account. As much as new technology keeps people 'connected' I would rather be connected on a deeper level rather than this superficial one.I've lived 'til now without Twitter in my life and I think I will continue along this path.
As for Facebook well, here is another 'must be a part of' scene I really don't warm to. I have friends on Facebook so have set up an account and invited them to join. Again I just think it a little too superficial for my liking. I enjoy when they post photos and I get an email alerting me to the fact that something 'new' is awaiting me at FaceBook. Given all the concerns in the press of late regarding privacy and FaceBook I think perhaps it may be one of those things where technology is evolving faster than our laws and that definitely is a situation where people could be exploited.
