I was confused.
I stared at an article I was reading…
This should be shared…
The window in the corner kept telling me that people were re-tweeting me, @ mentioning me, and I had 3 DM’s.
My mind drifted…
Then the whispers started…
“It’s a good read.”
“Post it on the microblog.”
“Stumble on your way to the bookmarklet.”
“Who cares? Get back to the +”
“Your circles are waiting at the +”
“Your page needs it. That’s why no one “likes” your page.”
I shake away the madness for a second, gulp some water, and take comfort in how many people I’m LinkedIn with.
I put shoes on Facebook, play with my circles, and try to categorize my virtually social life.
“ding”
It’s a text. I should look at the DM’s first… those might be more important. What happened to those shoes? Did I Facebook them? Shit. I think I pinned it. Wait, that’s what I wanted to do.
If I stumble with the +, it’s because I’m busy posting pins in circles and lists.
Then there’s a knock on my door. Do people still use those?
It’s the little guy…
vaguely familiar.
I think I knew him in a past life.
The little guy throws a shovel at me.
And tells me I need to digg something.
I’m dizzy.
Which is weird…
considering I have Klout in technology.
sigh. yes.

You are too virtually social… or you have vertigo… haven’t quite figured it out yet.
LOL! I know, it’s insane.

I have figured out that I can give, at most, 3 social cites my attention after that I get overwhelmed and can’t even function. Much like this!
This is exactly what social media does to my brain. We need help.
And that’s why I haven’t joined google + yet! I mean I have but I haven’t done anything with it. I can’t focus on one thing mor. I’m dizzy!

I know exactly how you feel. I get lost in the Interwebs …. and then forget my way back to the page I originally started on.
