Dave finally enters the 20th century
As mentioned in my last post, there are a couple of ways you can keep track of me on a more timely basis, ways that I’ve been a bit better at keeping up-to-date.
I mentioned here a number of months ago that I’m now on Twitter (click here: http://www.twitter.com/MonstrousJake) although, like many in my age group, I’m not sure I understand the point of Twitter.
I’m not sure why I need to post updates on my every move (”Made pancakes for supper. Yay!”). It would make more sense later on, after I’ve launched my plot to conquer the world and need to keep my minions informed (”We will take over Slovakia today. Yay!”) or, better yet, after I’ve got my first book published and need to keep my fans informed (”Have a book signing in Slovakia today. Yay!”) Ideally, it would be handy after I’ve got my first book published and have conquered the world and have to send orders to my minions (”Make pancakes for supper! Yay!”)
The second way to keep in touch with me, and the one I’m more likely to see and respond to more quickly, is on Facebook (click here: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1825976284).
Facebook, as an overall concept, makes more sense to me and my way of communication than does Twitter, so I check Facebook more frequently than I check Twitter.
For reasons beyond my understanding, a bunch of old friends have found me, or I’ve found them, on Facebook, more frequently than on any other Internet venue. I’ve had my own web site for 14 years now and have always been easy to find using Google or any of the other web search engines, but for some reason, Facebook seems to work better for this.
I still don’t have a cell phone though.
