BellaOnline Forums Computers Blogs & Social Networking Getting consumed by online socializing?

I know my mother plays scrabble and scramble on facebook. I don't do games myself. I also don't do those little plant exchanges but i know some folks love them.

I like enjoy responding to people's status statements on facebook; lately I've been doing that more than tweeting.

Its all i have to do, plus many hours of tv.
I'm alone most of the time ;(

I never consider posting on forums a waste of time. I figure I am learning from others, and others are learning from me. So keep on posting Rosie!

Jilly you always make me smile,
And feel welcomed

I use the social site to rant, vent and to unwind when I get off from work. I limit my time to about 1 hour every day or so. I work nights, so if I have to stay up, so I can sleep the next day, then I may be on the more. It's great to meet and talk with people from all over the world. You realize that it really doesn't matter where you live, we all have the same problems and concerns.

Oh - in response to "in game" - my friend played (plays) WoW - World of Warquest...........it was/is her main social life.

Update on my online socializing use: I have been getting ready for moving and have had to cut down massively on my networking. I basically cut out Twitter use completely. That really is a time-suck!

I have been keeping my family and friends updated on me at Facebook, with a daily status update. That's about what I can handle right now - one little status update.

It is interesting how quickly we've all adapted to the social media scene! It's become a daily part of our lives...when even a short time ago we didn't use these platforms at all.

To quote Keaunu Reeves, "Whoa."

oh my gosh...I spend so much time in the BellaOnline Forums...it's CRAZY!!! But it's the only one that I do, and everyone is so interesting.... I'm actually trying to find more so that I can increase my exposure - FOR MY WRITING...uh-oh possible time management troubles ahead?

Don't worry - I'll come get you, lol!

I have been addicted to these forums since day 1 that I dsicovered them!

And now that I am planning my 20 yr HS reunion on FaceBook, OMG! I can't escape!

I actually posted on there that I couldn't come out and play one day because I HAD to get my articles written. My friends saw it as a personal challenge to *ding* me all day long!

lol...ah...Michelle...you're my girl, see...I knew I could count on you to save me from a quick forum demise...or from having my fingers stuck in an eternal typing position.
