Gotta Share!

As a person with five active blogs, multiple Twitter accounts and Facebook pages, Flickr, Vimeo, and so on, I truly appreciate the following performance.

I think it’s important to ask yourself if maybe you’re over sharing. When I look at Twitter, in particular, I feel that many people are over sharing, which is annoying. People also have axes to grind, and Twitter again seems to be the preferred online place for that. But do I, or you, really care that so and so had a bad experience at Sheraton Four Points? Do I, or you, really care that so and so doesn’t like social media pundits, or people who show up late for meetings?

Just because you can share, doesn’t mean you should.
