Info Overload

07 Sep 2008, 08:50

Ok, I realized something today. No idea why, but today I thought that this world we live in is WAY over connected. Let me just list off all the things I try to keep updated. Facebook, Twitter, 3 blogs, my e-mail, writing for dailygamerblog.com, and any random updates to my gamertag and such things. Then there's the fact that I am always logged into at least AIM and Yahoo Messenger and have toolbars for Facebook, Twitter, Digg, and StumbleUpon all running in Firefox. That doesn't even take into consideration my RSS feeds. Yeah, I'm just a little stuck to the internet. What got me thinking though is the question of if this is an issue at all.

Hey everyone, I've made my way to another forum type site, and therefore I feel like sharing my thoughts about forums. I love the idea of a forum, sharing my thoughts on a topic in discussion with other gamers and such, just being able to talk about whatever crap comes up. The problem I always run into is that at some point too many people get involved in the conversation, so I get lost. This turns me off to the forum. Oh well. For now I'll stick around though and hopefully my normal cycle of joining and leaving a forum doesn't happen again.
