Social Networking

Okay, who is on atleast one if not on all of those SNS's? Wrong question, these days huh?!As you can guess, I'm one of the late entrants into this online social world.

Although last year my sister did try to "introduce me to 21st century" (her words!) by trying to sign me up, the lazy me never bothered to venture and see what the fuss was all about! What happened to the good ol' emails? But the final straw came couple of months ago, when my 9 yr-old niece suggested I open a Facebook account along with how sign up - felt like a fossil for a second there :-)

Don't blame it all on me though.. You cannot access these restricted sites at work and by the time us parents reach home to the kid-madness which doesn't end until the lil' peanut is asleep, one is more than ready to hit the sack hoping for a dreamless night :-)

But when I eventually did sign up onto couple of the popular sites and saw most of the people I know are on one or the other, definitely didn't take long for me to warm up to it.I'm sure everybody must have their own reasons for logging onto these sites but for me the most fun has been getting in touch with friends with whom I had lost contact for almost a decade. And I guess it is much easier logging in once/twice a week and and know what is going on with all friends/family rather than an occasional email to each one of them.

So, here is to yet another way to a smaller world.
