Overly Social Networked?

Was just talking to a friend about how many social networks we're on... Got me wondering.. What about you guys? How many are you on and how many is "too many?"

I'm on:
* LinkedIn
* Google+ (haven't quite figured it out yet)
* Polyvore (even though I never use it)
* Blogger (duh). ;) 

Whoa. I mean I work in communications/PR, so it'd be weird if I hated social media. But when I list them all out, I think "yowza!" haha... *shrugs* 

I find that if I'm blogging a lot, I'm not tweeting as much and vice versa. So I guess I kinda binge and purge on different networks, depending on my mood and how busy I am. I'm the most active on fbook, twitter, and blogger. Pinterest is close behind, though. 

On a social network note, I got myself in the beta group for the new fbook timeline that's launching soon. I'm still TBD on my feelings. This is what my profile now looks like. You can scroll through my whole timeline on the right side of the big photo. Weird. Jackie=not great with change. haha.. ;)

I am also on all of the above. I have a love/hate relationship with FB. In my opinion it changes too much. With Twitter I like reading tweets more than sending them out. Pintrest in my new obsession. I could waste hours upon hours on there.

Very cool you are apart of the beta group. I am not 100% sure how I feel about the time line feature as well. I guess I will have to wait and see.

The new fb looks so different! It kinda reminds me of a blog with that big picture.

From the look of it, I think I like the new FB!

I do Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Blogger. I don't think that's too many :)

I can't make myself do the new Facebook yet. I hate when Facebook changes things, so I know the new profile is goign to freak me out!

I know what you mean! I was a PR major in college and I guess it was just instilled upon me from then on. The internet owns me! ha

Pinterest has practically stolen my girlfriend! At this point I just wish they'd stop trying to make Facebook more like Google+
Que Sera!

I agree. If I am on Twitter a lot, I blog less and vice versa.

Facebook just keep changing and I start liking it less and less!

I'm not sure I'm going to like the new timeline, based on what I've seen. But I think I say that about every new change that FB rolls out.

I'm on Facebook, twitter, pinterest and blogger. I get on all of them everyday but sometimes I don't post anything. I still ekk... have my myspace account because of all the pictures I had on there! I need to get them off of it so I can delete the page.
