      My life on the interwebs, my new strategy, and what it is all about.

      I have been exploring the interwebs for as long as I can remember. As I look back I could probably tell you what I was doing on the internet at any given age.

      -When I was in the 2nd grade I went to Take-Your-Kid-To-Work-Day with my dad. We had a 56k modem at home (that is pretty much all anyone had back then, if they even had internet) but my dad's work had a T1 internet line. I spent a large part of the day on various Power Ranger fan sites. I spent so much time surfing for info about the Mighty Morphers that my Dad asked if I was even paying attention to what he was doing. I listed off what all the faders were on the soundboard from left to right.
      -Sometime shortly after that I made my first Geocities page.
      -In 6th and 7th grade my online activity was mostly on a message board for the band Barrage, my favorite band at the time.
      -The beginning of 8th grade marked my entrance into the world of instant messaging. I had a crush on agirl from camp. She asked me if I had MSN-IM. I didn't but I said I already did and quick made an account, just to talk to her.
      -I started my first blog in the 9th grade from the Moorhead High School library. It was after school, Knowledge Bowl practice had finished early and I was waiting until it was time for my mom to come pick me up.
      -I joined Facebook the first day it was open to Northwestern College students and I was on Twitter before a lot of my friends even knew what it was.
      -Just a few weeks ago I joined Google+, a new social networking site with great potential. It has some awesome features and some things it still needs to tweak a little to perfect. I am excited to see how it develops. With the recent addition of Google+ to my online arsenal I am changing my strategy for the internet.

      Until now I mostly posted everything everywhere. My twitter was the same as my blog which was the same as my facebook. That is all about to change. My postings on the web are going to be diversified. Different aspects for each site according to its best functions. My website is going to be just for my bigger posts, real blogs, not micro blogs. If you want to know about the day to day happenings of my life, funny things I overhear, or little things that happen to me then you should follow me on Twitter. If you want to see all the fun things I find on the internet, hilarious videos, new gadgets,  or whatever else the internet holds check out my Google+. I am going to use Facebook less for posting things and more for actual communication with others, messages and walls and whatnot.

      I think all these services (and plenty of other ones) are just trying to mimic the way we connect with people in real life. They try to replicate our relationships and imitate our interactions. Even though none of these services are as good as real life, face to face, actual hanging out, some of them have some pretty nice features. There are plenty of people I wish I could see more, sometimes schedules get in the way, sometimes distance, sometimes I don't know why it happens I just don't see someone in forever, but thanks to the wonders of technology in the age we live in we can still connect. That's what it is all about, connecting with each other.

      So hit me up on the Interwebs. Friend me, follow me, circle me, whatever you want to call it.
      Let’s connect.
