Social Networking

 "My name is Braff Zacklin. I was an international race car driver. One day, a baby carriage rolled out onto the track. I swerved into the retaining wall to avoid it. The car burst into flames but the baby miraculously survived. I WAS that baby." -Roger the Alien

I'm really lukewarm about this whole Google Plus thing. I don't even know if you're supposed to spell out the "plus" or just put "+."

The problem with social networking sites is that to get the most out of them, you wanna use the one with the most people. And to do that, you have to follow the herd from one trendy site to the next. Myspace to Facebook, Facebook to Google Plus, and then off to the latest super hip site 3 or 4 years from  now.

On one hand, I'm tired of drifting from site to site. When I first heard about Google Plus, my gut reaction was to say "Fuck it I'm ending the cycle here." But then what do I do? Stay on Facebook and watch as everybody I would be interacting with disappear? being alone on a Social Networking Site is pretty pointless.

So despite my misgivings, I'll probably end up joining Google Plus. And people will post statuses (Or whatever the Google Plus version of Statuses are) that read "Hey remember when we were all on Facebook? LOLOLOL"
