I’m just overwhelmed with all the new things that are happening in the world of the web. I sometimes feel like I’m on one of those airport walkways going the wrong way. Learn one thing and six more pop up. You must all feel the same. I was in my favourite electronics store a week or so ago and saw all the shiny new tablets that are out now. I resisted the book readers (thankfully) mostly because I like reading a real book, and like to share the books that I’ve read with my friends. Also, I don’t have to worry that my book will run out of power on a six hour flight and I’ll be stuck with nothing to read. HORROR! Last year when going to the UK, I read the second in the series of “The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo” non-stop on the way to my holiday (stopping for the meals, but not movies) and the third one on the way home. (Okay, I slept quite a way on that flight) I’m not sure any reader could have lasted!

Now you have Facebook, Twitter, Linked In (which I quite like for the wealth of information) and now Google+. Their argument is that you can have levels of friendships or “circles” so you can share with some people your drunken escapades, but exclude others. I’m sure Facebook will add this soon enough, and I have to learn all of this stuff, but frankly, I’d rather talk to you on the phone or go for lunch. Here’s a video explaining it all.
