  Network online?

  As one of the aforementioned BB's online, I'll offer a personal take on why I'm not socially networking online: I'm too busy socially networking in person. Nothing against the phenom - four kids are living 2.0 24/7 - but my own explorations have left me underwhelmed.
  
  Maybe its a generational difference in expectations. Satisfying human contact and interaction for me don't happen at the end of a wireless connection, any more than an enjoyable meal does. The internet is a facile tool, not a substitute for human interface.

  I think someone younger than a baby boomer wrote this article. Most boomers don't care about networking online! We actually like to deal face to face or phone to phone.
  
  That's my 2 cents.
