I've been thinking a lot recently about whether I would continue to exist if I were not on social networks. It's easy - as this article notes - to quit a social network in a blaze of glory, especially if there's somewhere else to go. If I don't tweet about quitting Facebook, does it really happen? More seriously, while Michael Erard may write "I did tweet the observation that Facebook isn’t going to pay you a pension or 401k for all the time you spent there" I am wondering whether I would have a career without social networks - or at least online activities. Not that anyone should worry - I can't imagine not writing, I can't imagine not being online. But I do seriously want to reduce my reliance on social networks. And if I cease to exist - well, so be it, I guess.
