The topic for week 43 of the 2019 #MFRWAuthor 52-weekChallenge ties to other posts that deal with social media in the 2017 and 2018 challenges: I'm Not Social and Social Media Hangouts.
FOE - I don't know if it is a personality thing or a result of my rural upbringing, but I don't have a smart phone permanently attached to my ear. I don't enjoy hanging out on social media just for the sake of it. Especially not on social media where many of the contacts are not between living, breathing friends you've met in person.
FRIEND - There are writers who I do enjoy visiting with in cyberspace and the online notes and pictures passed between family members. I don't know if the memes and cute kitten pictures are friends or foe. They can be a huge time suck or a great spirit uplifter.

The biggest complaint I have about social media is that it's a time sink. Whether used for good or bad, social media sucks a whole lot of time better spent on other things.
ReplyDeleteI've never been much of a face-to-face people person, so I interact more with people since social media than I did before in person, but I agree it can be a time suck if you're not careful. :-)
