As I continue to make attempts at the whole social media thing, I also continue to learn more. I am now linking blogs together, editing text, commenting more and updating blogs. All of this comes after almost giving up because of the frustration at my lack of knowledge concerning the world wide web and all that it entails. Stay tuned…

How frustrating it is for people like me… New bloggers and tweeters. It’s frustrating because when one starts out in this new realm of communication strategies, it feels as if the world has left one behind and moved on to a whole new dimension. Lonely is this place.
As I attempt to twit and blog, I get the feeling that I might not be able to find that niche, that thing that could get this big ball rolling. And what if I can’t? It should be obvious to all who read my attempt that I am not a writer. Nor am I a brainiac. I am simply someone trying desperately to fit in (so to speak). Fitting in is harder now than it was in the years where I thought that it mattered the most (my teenage years). Now, if I don’t somehow fit in I will definitely be left behind! Technology is so much connected to finances and vice versa. We will all need to be knowlegeable about both in order to survive or we will have a much bigger problem (bigger that fitting in) on our hands.
I am so frustrated because of all the work it takes for someone like me to grasp the concepts involved in both twittering and blogging. However, I will continue until I am confident in my skills… I won’t give up!
Tell me, though. Am I alone? Does anyone else feel my pain? I ask because from where I am… It feels kinda lonely.
