I completely agree! When the addiciton affects home lifte then that is one, when it is taken into the workplace then that is quite another – not good!

Great post Robert. A strike of common sense to the old brain. Love your comment “The real addiction that most of us have is wanting to talk to people. That’s not a bad thing.” Absolutely, it is not, no matter in what format we do it!

Thanks Jed. I really like the fact that social media allows users to control their own real-time learning. It is a big reason why so many people use it, both professionally and personally. Maybe in the future I can post about different techniques that people use to intelligently control their learning online.

Thanks for the comment Dale. I think you are right. An awful lot of Twitter users that have plenty of followers or that make the mainstream news headlines do so because of their name or celebrity status. That's the beauty of social media though – you can use it intelligently to filter out noise you don't want to hear and receive the type of information and content that you want.

Hi Rob,

Good post. Considered and well written. And yes; 'intelligent' is the key word here. Social media does have much to offer but it's usually the non-intelligent stuff that makes the headlines e.g. Stephen Fry's tweets while stuck in a lift. Very facinating for his fans and admirers I'm sure but give me some Star Trek re-runs any night;-)
