Social Media - How active you are?

After several years, I am active again on Social Media...And, I realized that it is a paradigm shift, and it is transformed drastically, and in so many ways!

I remember those days, when I was fascinated by what Orkut offered, and the story behind the invention of Orkut...Friends joined, Colleagues joined, some of the relatives joined, and I logged onto Orkut. It was an interesting way to keep a tab on what is happening with your friends, with your near and dear ones. It was great, and I appreciated every bit of it.

I realized it needed time, and energy to be continuously on it...The pace of social media was very fast for me to keep up with...In a year or so, I understood about facebook; and created a facebook account. Over time, it became very difficult to keep up with both Orkut and Facebook while I saw everyone using more of facebook, and Orkut users became scarce...It was matter of time, I lost in touch with both the sites...It takes hell amount of time, and was difficult for me to keep up with, primarily with so much going on in life and at work...I am not entirely sure if my Orkut account still works or rather if Orkut site still works:)

Several years simply passed by and I was not bothered about several other Social Media inventions...I heard of Google+, Picasso, WhatsApp, etc..New age mobiles brought newer inventions in the Social Media space. People got connected, rather seamless connection, continuous connection...and it may be leading to too much...Very thin balance of using it, or being abused by its use!

Anyways, I am trying to follow, what elders have said, a sweet dish is sweet and healthy if you keep it limited...I have logged on facebook....and may make into other apps too:) I feel excited!
