Have you tried
signing up to almost all social networking sites? If you have, then you are one
of those people who don't want to be left behind about anything new. That
isn't a bad thing though as long as you are very much careful with all the
information you have provided and that the site you are signing up to is
guaranteed safe.
I'll share my
experience, when I started creating an account in "friendster" (which
is the most famous social site in the Phil before facebook), I've become really
engrossed. And then I heard about My Space, Twitter and Facebook , Instagram -
I can't stop trying out something new cause I don't want to be left behind. I
just actually created an account on Facebook because of 'Farmville' and was
never really fascinated with the look of my home page, that's why I don't
normally post on it. I also have a Photobucket account since I love to collect
pictures of my fave artist. I stopped using friendster, when it changed its
interface, I can't get back to it since all of my pictures and list of friends
were unrecoverable. I was really upset so I continued using Facebook which was
increasing in popularity then. But I
didn't just stop there, google + plus came, and I signed up for its trial.
I also got hooked to Dropbox when I was
working so I created an account. But it’s storage is really limited unless I
invite some friends, so I decided to look for other cloud storage like Google
Drive and Megacloud. I also started blogging, so I first signed up in Wordpress
and then discovered Blogger, which offers
a lot of features I liked. I
signed up to lots of sites other than those I mentioned above and I haven't
even used most of them.
What
happened?
I use two emails
when I sign up for something. Without realizing how many sites I signed up for,
emails started flooding my email accounts. It was such a tiring job to delete
all those unimportant emails and spams. So one by one, I started unsubscribing from
the sites I got an account with. That was very time consuming but it freed me
from having all those emails deleted. From a number of social accounts, I am
now managing five (5) of them plus my two (2) email accounts. I just stick to
the ones I really use often and it was much more convenient than handling more
than what I can manage. :D
Try to use, only
those that are relevant and useful to you, sites are meaningless unless they
are used wisely. :D
