When Do You Find the Time?

Filed in archive General by Linda Roeder on September 13, 2007

Let's face it, social networking takes a lot of time. You need to read your friend's blog entries, read all to comments posted to you, find and accept new friends and see all their latest photos. At the same time you need to post your own blog entries, post comments on your friends sites and post your own photos, music and videos.

"I'm already exhausted trying to balance everything. I can't keep up with the reading, not to mention the posting and participating." ~Dangerously Irrelevant

Say you have 10 friends on each social networking site and you belong to 3 different social networking sites. That's 30 friends you need to keep up with each day. That takes a lot of time.

I don't know about you, but I don't have that kind of time. Sure I try to keep up with the most important things going on in my friends lives, but only certain friends. I don't have time for all of them.

When and how do you find the time?

Add your response to When Do You Find the Time?: Response from: Greg You make it seem like its a hassle to be in a social network. I personally go on to keep in touch with who im interested in and who messages me. I know of a lot of people who simply go on these social networks to check on pictures and where ppl went on certain night. small things like that. A social network should be fun not an obligation. Response from: Ron I use 8hands- the desktop social aggregator so I don't feel like I'm on 3 networks cause I don't have to log into all of them- 8hands keeps me posted about what's going on. It definitely saves time. Response from: Noel This was a great article. I had to limit myself to one social networking site called Yuwie. The reason I chose Yuwie is because they pay their members for everything they do on the site. http://www.yuwie.com/yuwie.asp?r=15105 Noel That SongBird Guy Response from: Noel This was a great article.

At least this way you can keep in touch with friends and sort your own life out too! And you can choose which friends see what! Hope that helps. Mula :) Response from: mula Agreed! The constant upkeep and energy spent on all these SN sites is ridiculous. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY!!! I use Obami. It offers personal admin tools that help me to save time while I still keep in touch with my friends!
