21st Century Schizoid Man
I'm trying to divide my web presence: It's the age of specialization after all, the Age of Miracles. I think I've got it now.
This LiveJournal account will be my mostly-unprivate diary, something close to the real me (but not quite).
I'm going to use my Facebook account to be everything to everyone. Facebook is the modern day forum you use to construct your public self. I like that. I enjoy the challenge of creating a version of me that can interact with a wide variety of people that I've known.
My Twitter account will mostly be attempted jokes, along with sports talk.
I believe that if I were born in any other time period, I wouldn't stand a chance. However, if this really is the Age of Information, and I'm starting to believe that it is, I think I have a distinct advantage. If knowing how to process information quickly and correctly is the next skill required to survive, I know I'm prepared.
"Some will sink / But we will float."
