Isn’t it crazy? I recently wrote a story for everydaychristian.com about churches and their use of Twitter and Facebook. Churches are beginning to Twitter their Sunday services and have Facebook groups to let others know about upcoming events etc. I just think back to when I was a kid and we didn’t have any of this fancy stuff. There I go sounding like my parents… when I was your age….I didn’t even have a cell phone probably until college and now five year old kids have them. Now social media has entered the scene. It took me a little while to decide to try Facebook. I used to think of it as kind of like MySpace and I was always cautious about that because I only heard of teenagers being on it. Facebook is great! I’ve gotten back in touch with several people from high school etc. Now Twitter.. that’s another story. I am still trying to get a handle on how it works. I get that you have short bursts of information, you can follow others and they follow you, but who is really interested in what I’m doing? Seriously. I am going to try harder and make sure I tweet about important things with my freelance work. Maybe I can get more followers who might care what I’m doing. Anyway, the bottom line is social media is taking over and we all need to get onboard or we’ll never keep up with new technology.
