I was recently inspired by David Airey to write a post inviting all of you, my faithful readers, to add me as your friend to the various networks that I frequent. I don’t know why this idea never occurred to me before. Sure, every once in a while I put up some badge or something, but I have never written a nice little list, with links to all of my profiles. Here is what David A. has to say on the matter:
Social networking helps connect you with many like-minded people throughout the world. Some of us spend hours on end trawling through social networking sites, forgetting one very simple step to build your social networks.
And he is right. We don’t spend enough time doing it. We probably add our college buddies, then a few random people from high school… but this all happens on the first day you sign up. I remember how pumped I was every time I got a friend notification from Facebook, but now I hardly ever get them. Now maybe this is because I suck for one reason or another, but maybe it’s because people don’t socialize as much as they should. For my pride’s sake, I hope it is the latter.
My Social Networks:
So there you have it. Please feel free to friend me in any or all of these networks. Oh, and I believe that Wendy Piersall, Gayla McCord and Dennis Peterson also have similar posts. Enjoy!
Thank you very much for the link love! Good luck with the list

Thanks for the mention. I’m glad to see more bloggers joining up with the opportunities there are in the social networking arena. It’s not just great for traffic, it’s amazing at the number of friends you can make globally.
I’m enjoying sharing the diversity of cultures with my children. It’s almost as grand as any eduction they can get at a public school.
This is a good idea to reach out to your readers like this. Many people do limit their social networks to just their actual friends. They are missing out on great chances to build contacts that can help a lot.
