I have just experimented with Twitter, Facebook and GBuzz. They seem like time-killers. I can see how maybe they are useful for calling attention throughout the day to aggregated news sites such as Huffington Post, or perhaps for those who have many items going on or off line for sale on a site such as EBay. In other words, something with a lot of turnover. Or maybe for those who don't have a website. But for those of us who do have websites and do work that takes considerable lengths of time to complete, it's a distraction. And when we get home, isn't it time to socialize in real time?
