"Social Networking" became a big buzz word in 2008. And I wondered "Why would I want to add one more thing to my already busy life?". After receiving a number of invitations to join friends on Linked In and Facebook I decided to take the plunge and see what this is all about. I'll admit, I was a skeptic at first. Why would anyone care what I "is" doing right now? But in a very deranged way I enjoy seeing what my friends, family, and coworkers are up to - no matter how trivial. I loaded Facebook onto my Blackberry and now I can keep up even when I am not at my computer.
I admit "My name is Connie Carlson and I am addicted to Facebook." But I have seen some great things happen as a result of this silly little website. First of all, some of our agents have been able to secure buyers and sellers as a result of their activity on Facebook. Secondly, I can easily share photos and videos with hundreds of friends all over the world. In addition, one "is" at a time I am getting to know my friends better and better every day. And lastly, it's Fun! Beats the heck out of watching TV commercials!
Twitter.com is another Social Networking website that I was exposed to the other day. On the twitter.com home page there is a short little video that does a great job of explaining why you should join the fun. I am attaching the video to this blog for your viewing pleasure.
Oh and by the way...if you are looking for a friend on Facebook. Look me up at ConnieCarlson@kw.com.
