Topic: Social Netorking
The steam has slowed on this site, which might be a good thing. I’ve begun reading and posting on various listserves, outdoor listserves, education things, 20-something sites. Need to start focussing in on the people I want to network with. People I want to meet, to learn from, to write for and with, etc.
That’s going to be the focus of my next several months. Networking to meet more friends, to learn about future job possibilities, and to advance the reach of my activism. Accept for the super-rich who live in hiding, thousands of writers, activists, educators, and more are easily within my reach. This year is the year to meet these people, not with any motive in mind, but to get to know these people and what they’re thinking and doing. In time, this social network will aid me in some way, and hopefully I’ll be able to aid others because of that, so it’s only 50% selfish, as almost all motives must be.
