So I get an online invitation today from an old friend and previous work colleague to "accept her invitation" to Plaxo. Apparently I joined Plaxo at some point, but I don't remember doing it. I am now connected with her through Plaxo, Facebook, myspace and Linkedin. I am guessing that there are even more out there that I don't know about. Interestingly enough I have people that I know on all four that may or may not also be on the other three. Mostly people I have worked with at one time or another. I find that Facebook has lots of people from my high school days that I hadn't heard or even thought about in close to 20 years. It's been a hoot and a half catching up with those folks! Facebook and MySpace is mostly people I worked with when I was still doing the corporate America gig. Same with Linkedin. I am not quite sure which direction Plaxo is heading yet. I suppose it isn't all bad. To be honest, if it wasn't for internet networks, I probably wouldn't have any networks at all.
I regret not updating this blog more often than I do. I find that over the years it has changed somewhat from being all about my life in the Air Force to being just about my life in general. I suppose it takes a bit of an ego to write about your life in a forum where others can simply click on your link and read about you. Do I really think I am that interesting? Not really. But it's a cool outlet. I can write what I want, when I want it and offer up no apologies on anything I spew forth. It's my blog, dammit.
Besides, I met a man recently and he's got the link. Suppose I should make an effort now to update more often. No pressure or anything though (hi Eric!).
