Leave the real IQ testing to psychologists. I don't know about this. If psychologists have the highest average IQ of any occupation, then their findings are suspicious, but if they don't have the highest average, then why are they qualified to determine IQ?

I'm on Facebook, but not Twitter or Myspace. There's a few of us Axiomites on Facebook: pmbuko, kcarlile, CV, sonicfox, nickbuol, Adamp88, Efalardeau, and tomtuttle are the ones I know of. Real names have been omitted to protect the innocent. Um..... That IS my real name! Doh! Nick

I guess that means you weren't one of the innocent.

I've been meaning to join Facebook for the last couple of months, but never got around to it. Coincidentally, Joyce joined last week and has mentioned to me that it's all a bit "much".... but I probably still will try it.
I'm always one generation behind what's cool....
I didn't sign up for Myspace until Facebook came out and estabished itself as cooler. Now I'll join Facebook because Twitter is all the rage.

I still get the most use out of MySpace, simply because it's still the best way to track bands. I'm not social enough to get real value out of the others.

I Twit a little, but mainly follow others on Twitter.

People don't want to take the time to read or write anything substantial, so Twitter to the rescue. Sadly, very true. A few months ago I read the results of a survey that indicated that, among other thing, a huge percentage (I forget the number so I won`t quote a number) of the American population hadn`t read a book since ... they left grade school! Additionally, the statistics available to web site administrators make it easy to apply some analysis to your statement. About 70% of the visitors that land on my site stay for less than 30 seconds, even when the content displayed explains ways to resolve the challenges for which they were searching. Conversely, over 10% of the visitors stay for over a half hour, and over half of them stay for over an hour. That smaller group is my target. The challenge is that niche sites like mine need to attract a lot of people so that you can get the smaller core group that you really are after establishing a connection with. It often amazes me that people around the world regularly visit my site, and that a good number have elected to subscribe to a free service that delivers the updates that I post to my site direct to their email within hours. There`s a real recommendation on those who profess to be blogging advisors to use any and all of the social networking tools, especially Twitter. Now I could be wrong, but even with a bit of an established readership, I cannot talk myself into believing that anyone would want to `follow me` on Twitter. Plus, I`d rather devote my time to build even more content for my site. Well, either that or hanging out here.

I heard the past tense of 'twit' is like the past tense of 'sit'. The best description of Twitter I've heard so far is "140 character chunks of id."
I'm pretty sure I swear more on twitter than anywhere else online.
