From my perspective, social media is neither social, nor, incredibly informative. I feel like it is a convenient, superficial substitute for interpersonal depth. Its quantity over quality. When people ask me if I'm on facebook, I say "no, but here's my card". My card has my work cell and email address on it. Its so much easier this way. I choose who contacts me, I choose what they know about me, and I choose when I return calls and emails. And when a personal connection is made in this way, people know that they've got my full attention. They won't get lost in the "livefeed". That's my preference. Depth.

Facebook, in my view, actually reinforces a loosening of boundaries.
Thanks for this!
