Maintaining A Digital Life

June 6, 2010

For me, maintaining a digital life is a difficult thing to do. Between work, family, spirItuality, and personal time how can I maintain an effective online presence? And, is it worth it?

I’ve recently revived this blog and have attempted to be more active on my Facebook account. And, we’ll have to see about Twitter.

For me, my favorite online outlets are this blog and online forums. There are personal relationships and reputations on both, but the knowledge sharing is so much deeper than short posts and status updates. But alas, responding to people in depth and writing something interesting is time consuming. That’s probably why Facebook is so popular, it’s easy and mostly brainless.

I know it’s worth it though. There is a level of intrinsic satisfaction to it, though with such a large amount of noise out there it can be painful to curate.
