    I'm think I must be the patron saint of forgetting the fake world.. I think I'm connected with more social media people offline and then on. I've probably had more beers with like.. Chris Brogan then I've actually commented on his blog.. I often forget that social media is about more then just meeting people in person..

    Though I recently went to a DIY audio festival.. and met a twitter friend.. it was I think my first experience of being friends with someone online and then meeting them in person.. well, with the exception of my dating life. What was really kind of cool is I met him offline as a part of an improvisation session with like.. circuit bending / noise whatever making.. which is can be a very intimate way to interact with someone. He being an associate professor at the Berklee College of Music.. and what a great guy.

    But I guess it's what I love about social media most.. the connecting, making friends.. kinda thing. Normally I understand people often don't make so many friends post college.. and off in social media vill.. its like.. well just awesome... And the way you would probably never meet these people other wise. I can tell you that I generally didn't like people too much.. before I got into social media..
