I enjoy social media because it facilitates the free exchange of ideas in a medium relatively free of social bias. I don't actually want to visit with the people I talk to. I live on a mountain in the middle of nowhere to keep from dealing with people face to face. The last thing I want to do is have them follow me around. I might make an effort to meet someone sometime, but from what I've seen of BK, that's way too much information. Wow - that sounds like a nightmare to me.
