Is there any point to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram? If I closed all of them, would anyone notice?

5 From My Twitter Follow List
Posted by chyrondave
I’ve had a love/hate relationship with Twitter. On one hand, I hate the limited word count and how so many people use it as just a means of promoting their own stuff. On the other hand, I love the fact that I can promote this blog on my Twitter feed to the 80 people who actually follow me.
Since my random moments of wanting to drop Twitter, I have realized that there are actually a few Twitter feeds I would miss I dropped Twitter (again).

Another Closed Down
Posted by chyrondave
I closed my Google+ Profile today. When asked why I was doing so, I submitted the following answer:
I rarely use Google+ for anything. I know maybe three people on it, and they never use Google+. It does not connect to things like WordPress for it to be any use as a promotional vehicle. What little content that is on here is available through other sources (Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, etc.) that Google+ is redundant.

The other day, I had to unfriend someone on Facebook. For most people that happens all the time.
I’m not most people. Read the rest of this entry →

Cell Phone – Do I really Need It?
Posted by chyrondave
I have a Verizon cell phone. I got my latest contract just before they got rid of the unlimited data plan option, so I was grandfathered in.
Well, I thought I was.

Tweets from the Week
Posted by chyrondave
A few of my tweets from the past week.
First up are a couple of tweets I sent as a general observation/complaint about Twitter and its suggestions.
#DearTwitter if I hide a suggestion on who to follow, it probably means I do not want to follow them. Please note that in the future
— David Brzezinski (@TheChyronDave) December 22, 2011
Love seeing the people that are on my suggested list here. It's like #Twitter has the inside track of my mind, and ignores it anyway
— David Brzezinski (@TheChyronDave) December 18, 2011
I was trying to create a hashtag trend with #XMasGoneBad. This one I think is the best of the three I posted.
#xmasgonebad the sleigh and 8 tiny reindeer NORAD is tracking is really a disguised North Korean ICBM
— David Brzezinski (@TheChyronDave) December 21, 2011
I saw #lonelydarkseid originally posted by Gail Simone. This was my entry into the list.
Darkseid never went on the Tunnel of Love ride at the fair. #lonelydarkseid
