I Digress a bit, so just humor me!

My phone beeps and dings and vibrates right off of the table all day long. Each time that happens I assume something exciting has happened and I got a text from a friend or an important call. Instead it is just a Facebook comment to a comment that I made, that I should not have made in the first place. See, while I am well versed in Social Media for Business, I am not so well versed in Social Media for Personal.

An example: The other day I saw a facebook update of someone who was selling a couch because they were getting a new one. I commented "how exciting. I hope that you love your new couch." It turns out that it was a the HEB Buy Sale Trade page and it was just a stranger trying to sell a couch.

## But Renee’ you teach Social Media
Yes, I do teach social media and I am really good at that. I understand how to use the tools and the platforms but I don’t teach social. There is a difference between understanding social media and understanding social. Don’t worry, I have friends and I spend time with them. However, I don’t interact with them well on social media. Actually, I don’t hardly interact on social media with my friends at all.

I use social media as a tool. It is a method for me to gain information. I love following tech leaders and blogging leaders and WordPress know-it-alls. Social Media is a wonderful way to learn about new products. Social Media is a wonderful way to learn new tips and tricks. It is how I find all of the content that I read.

It just so happens that in my case, I tend to filter out things such as a camel getting tickled and what my best friend had for dinner. I have much rather have dinner with my best friend and hear those stories than read about them on Facebook. Does that make me weird?
