Say what!?! Yes. I’m totally bored and bothered with social networking to be quite honest. I have registered memberships at more than 30 social sites, it’s a monster!!! It’s way too easy to sign-up for social sites, stuff them into a bookmarks folder then call them up to surf the day away. It’s something I’ve been pondering for the past few weeks, a personal realization on how heavily focused I have become with being social more than being creative and productive.

Some of you may say this is backwards, being the trend is focused toward the social sites, throwing out little blurbs as opposed to actual full out writings and abandoning the traditional style of blogging through wordpress or blogger in turn for something that is already built out, no need for hosting, no upkeep, etc.. But I truly enjoy the traditional style of blogging, especially on something I have full control over in design and functionality, and would rather sit down and write out fully coherent thoughts or spend time creating something visual than getting preoccupied with twittering about my day every 5 minutes, or updating my facebook status, or checking my comments feeds, or… You get the point.

I’ll still blog here as usual and have a presence on Flickr for photos and Vimeo for videos. I’m just working to cut off some of the web 2.0 fat I have emersed myself in.

So, Here’s to no more kicking the day off with PopURL’s as my homepage, no more getting poked on Facebook, no more tweets from Twitter and no more bacn in the inbox.

Most of all, here’s to new vision.
