i think facebook has replaced my blog

it is unfortunate. i keep writing facebook updates and then deleting them because they are either too long or too public. so really i'm updating neither.

i feel like the blog is a kinder, slower, more thoughtful place and facebook is life on uppers.

not that i know what uppers are like...i picture it like being on a lot of caffeine, but it is only an assumption.

i hate being on too much caffeine. it hurts my belly and makes me jittery.

There has been much speculation amongst the tech elite that twitter (and I assert Facebook status updates), are killing blogs.

But the comeback, one that has a lot of weight, is exactly what you said; you can only say so much in 140 characters :-)

What I personally enjoy about my blog is that it is my soap box, if someone comes to my blog, they have searched out and chosen to view what I have to say, whereas on Facebook or Twitter, "what I'm doing right now" is lost in a sea of what everyone else is thinking and doing right now.

Plus it gives me a chance to get to know people better, casually, comfortably, in my / their own time. I would know very little about Parker or Jaden if it where not for the occasional little tidbits you share here :-)

Suz, your stream of consciousness never fails to crack me up.
