Thanks Paige for your kudos! I love networking with people from all around the world and I enjoy connecting like minded people. I use a combination of Facebook and Twitter to do most of my networking. Occasionally I use LinkedIn but not as much as Paige. It would be helpful to know what type of things you have about each so then we can share from our own experience.

I have both Facebook and LinkedIn accounts, Serena. As a matter of fact, it was through LinkedIn that Kim and I connected and she became my co-host on Views from the Coop. Personally, I’ve used LinkedIn more for asking questions and finding specific business connections (like Kim….who has also become a great friend). I use Facebook on a more personal level. Honestly, I don’t use either as much as Kim does. She’s a power networker and I’m a tekkie chik!

I understand where you’re coming from, Meryl…and you, too, Kim. The challenge for me has been to curtail my twittering. Just because I get instant updates doesn’t (and shouldn’t) mean I need to respond instantly. A tool loses its efficiency if it’s overused and personally, I believe efficiency has to be tied to effectiveness. By that I mean that if a tool is designed to help me be more time-efficient, if I spend too much time using it, then it’s not being very effective!
