Cut the Fluff!

Chris Brogan is a smart man. Of course, I think anyone is pretty smart who tells me I'm trying to do too much with my time and I need to get back to the basics. (Take President Uchtdorf, for example!)

Brogan's article makes the point that there are a LOT of options when it comes to social media, but not all of them are very useful! It really just depends on what you are trying to do. Some things are great for personal use -- I'm a sucker for Facebook, as previously mentioned. But I prefer twitter to get professional information, whether it's the latest on bands I intend to write about or interesting things going on with freelance writing and social media.

I feel like Brogan has given me permission to slack off, to not feel pressured to be "in the know" on everything. Just to what actually works, and let everything else go. Told you he was a smart man.
