Would You Want to Exchange Social Media Information?

friends2

Does it ever happen to you that you are working on a post and then someone else writes on the same subject? I find it happening to me very often and I end up feeling my post isn’t going to be as good and I won’t publish it! Just recently it happened twice with the same person – JohnTP, who has a post today on exchanging social media contacts.

I had this post sitting in my drafts for sometime now but I never took the time to publish it but seeing John’s post, I thought it might not be such a bad idea after all because he took the idea from Daniel Scocco who had done the same thing!

One of the reasons I kept it in the drafts folders was that I am not active on many of the sites I have joined. The only sites I check regularly are Stumble Upon, Digg, MyBlogLog and now Mixx. But here are some of the sites you might want to join me on.

Leave your contact info or profile url in the comments section so that other readers and I can also join you.

Because of spam, your comments with links will go in the moderation queue and I will approve them at my earliest. I’ve got to brave the yucky weather now as we have frozen rain and sleet and it is not very pleasant! Actually it is completely opposite of pleasant! Did I say I hate to drive in this weather? People forget to slow down and almost every main highway is clogged with accidents every few miles!

You know, I didn’t realize there were that many of them until I started to list them!

Here in Colorado, the very first snow of the year everyone drives super slow. Then after that they drive very fast. I don’t think a day goes by, when there is snow in the road, that there isn’t a roll over accident on the highway. The Medians are low, so if you slide into one sideways, then you flip right over.

That, and everyone things 4 wheel drive means 4 wheel stop.

I’ve just put good tires on both the Jeeps, so I think I’m good to go. :-)

Sorry I’ve been out of the loop for a little while Pearl, I’ve got some reading to catch up on.

@Tad: thanks for the link! I definitely need it now… too many sites to remember info about…

@Mike: always good to have you back! the purpose of you leaving these here is also so that others can join your networks if they wanted to…

Gosh, I know what you mean by the 4 wheel stop :lol: people are nuts! actually, the first day was bad, then it turned to rain so nothing accumulated… We’ve strong wind advisory for tomorrow ‘cuz of nor’easter, and some flurries, other than that it looks good here!
