You have articulated what I've been trying to tell my friends who don't get my interest in social media: in a very real sense, social media done right rewards and promotes the very same values of honesty, transparency, and trust...the results of making meaningful connections...that our grandfathers (okay, my grandfather, your great grandfather) deemed so worthy. The medium has changed, but not the values. I think it's amazingly cool that through technology, we have come full circle. And just to prove that you CAN teach an old dog new tricks, I am proud to call Laura Roeder my awesome business mentor and coach. The fact that she's younger than my youngest child is irrelevant to her knowledge, her savvy, and her great instincts.

I don’t blame you at all for refusing… and I’m glad you’ve stepped in with all of us dweebs. :)

Tue, 20 Jul 2010 22:30:14 +0000 http://www.lauraroeder.com/?p=1256#comment-4173 You just summarized how I feel to a 'T'! My friends had been after me for a long time to get on Facebook, but I refused. I figured that I didn't need that stuff and if I wanted to talk to someone I would pick up the phone and call them or text them. But everything changed when I accepted a business development assistant position. Now I find myself involved with social media, blogging and marketing on a daily basis...and most days I feel like a dweeb! Thanks for helping me realize that everyone else feels the same way!
