It wasn't until I started using it to just connect with people that I was able to relax. I know we are all supposed to think about how we spend our time in terms of an ROI, but social networking is almost impossible to justify that way.<br /><br />I'm with you. The value of your network, no matter how small, is in the people who form your network. Unless you "get out of the bubble" as my wife and I say, you never learn about new opportunities or find those unique relationships that make your life better.<br /><br />I'm enjoying your tour. Can't wait for the next stop!Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01159361726781299314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190451394398154097.post-74517725631433696752012-09-11T22:43:48.891-04:002012-09-11T22:43:48.891-04:00I'm glad you got something from my post, Leona...I'm glad you got something from my post, Leona.

Thankfully, there is much I can do sitting in front of my computer, once I figure out what that is.<br /><br />I have four children with spouses, eleven grandchildren, and being one of eight children myself, a large extended family. Now, isn't that quite a network? LOL<br /><br />I wish it were that simple, but it does help.<br /><br />Thanks, Mysti, for all your informative guests.Leona~Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07402887334910900186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190451394398154097.post-20399460400974044462012-09-11T13:54:37.787-04:002012-09-11T13:54:37.787-04:00My pleasure!My pleasure!Mystihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147640629724678243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190451394398154097.post-11861192562428476542012-09-11T13:47:33.863-04:002012-09-11T13:47:33.863-04:00Mysti, thanks so much for letting me post here tod...Mysti, thanks so much for letting me post here today and get the word out about emotobooks!Cynthia Ravinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866804811647405290noreply@blogger.com
