Loving this post! Especially the ability to tweet and drink coffee at the same time. One of the things I love best about it is the ability to connect with people you would otherwise not know about - and particularly the exchanges and opinions and free flowing ideas.
Great post!!

"Tweet one minute, coffee shop the next" -- yes! Have been making social plans via social media & love it.

I think you covered all the points!

#18. Being a broke entrepreneur is cool.
One of the best ones! Entrepreneurs are on the rise and the stigma that we are all crazy for not going corporate is quickly disappearing. I love you take on social media, it's a little less serious. That's what I am all about! Fabulous post!

"4. 4.Consumers have the power!"
Wrong. The infrastructure guys have the power to turn off the spigot and kill any kind of social media.

Which will never happen unless you live in North Korea.
Despite all these reasons, I've yet to touch social media. Facebook? It's called a phone. Community? I'd rather real life social clubs? Cybersex? I'll take the real thing, thanks!

I feel you Mikey! There is no replacement for the real thing. However, you are on Brazen...you're social mediaing right now (if that's a verb).

True, but I have no reliance on it. If Brazen Careerist turned itself off tomorrow, it would make minimal impact on my life - I'll probably end up reading Dilbert comics while waiting for the train.

Not a bad alternative
