Do You Need to "TWITTER"??


With the onslaught of "Social Networking", one has to ask... why???

Are these socially-oriented sites just another form of "match-makers" or "lonely hearts clubs" ???? Or do we really find an attraction in following along with the "personal goings-on" in some one else's life??
Is it the same sort of "popularity" that has given rise to the surge in the so-called "reality" shows on TV where we think we are seeing what other people do or would do in particular circumstances?? Or is it just the "voyeurism" hidden in the human psyche that provides us with a needed sense of comparing ourselves to some level of "predictable norm"??
Whatever it is..... we should realize that "reality shows" are not real; and what people say in their "innermost diaries" or their "public" social posts are still usually manipulative and hardly "real".

I find these social networking sites a hugh distraction and waste of valuable time. But, I know there are plenty of you that may disagree. I am always open to (and would honestly like to) hear views from any of you that feel differently and can help point out their "value".

Having said all this, you can well imagine that I don't find much use for Social Network involvement in or its application in Affiliate Marketing.
