I just have never seen the need for them in my life. Some may need them for
professional or career reasons ... or because their lives are empty of other
social contexts. {SHRUG}

As I said - some may need them for professional or career reasons ...

I do Roadfood and am a member of the eGullet society - but, that's about it.
Oh, yeah, a couple e-mail discussion lists, too. Chile-heads and a Formula One

 DD> What ever happened to face-to-face interaction?

 DS> No one I know has replaced face-to-face interaction with social media.

I know a couple who have pretty much converted to spending most of their lives
in those sorts of sites in lieu of real, physical, look-you-in-the-eye contact
with real life. But, they are sad, pathetic cases anyway.
