Get Up From Behind Your Computer

Technology has given us the opportunity to network through Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Coworkers, and more. These social networks allow us to reach out to people that we might not have been able to connect to with otherwise. But, you still need to get out from behind your computer and go meet people.

Your online social networks are far more valuable to you if you use them to widen your network of people to meet in person. Online social networks have the advantage of quantity, but meeting face-to-face give you quality.

We Will Find You

Mobile Social Network Software, or MoSoSo, is down right scary. According "Students' New Best Friend: 'MoSoSo'", under-25s are the hot new market for using GPS combined with cyber-social networks to find people. Anyone. All the time. All you need is phone.

I'm under-25 and, again, that scares me. I don't want my parents, crazy exs, siblings, and friends to have the ability to know where I am at all times; it feels like an invasion of privacy just thinking about it.

I feel like that kills the term "weekend getaway" and completely kills any chance of the up and coming generations from sneaking out without their parents find out. Do people really want other people to know where you are at all times?

Not me. But, at the same time I definitely can't give up my Blackberry...
