Ok, not exactly what you think, but I needed a catchy title for this blog post. Why? I have not posted an article here in the last eleven days, so hence the title, “I have been sober for eleven days.”
Social Media, as it turns out, needs constant fuel to keep it running, sometimes hourly, more often than not, daily and in far too many cases than I care to admit, hourly refueling. When you let eleven days go by without posting anything, the page views go way down, your friends and followers start drifting off to other conversations and even Guy starts to wonder why he is listing you on Alltop.com.
The truth is my analog life has been very, very busy and I have not had time to devote the fuel-time to my Social Media life. Actually, to state that more accurately, I have not had the time to finish a number of blog posts that are sitting in my draft folder.
My name is Gerard McLean. I am addicted to Social Media and it has been eleven days since my last blog post. When I hit “publish,” I will have fallen off the wagon and will have reset the counter.
