“Do you Facebook? It seems like more and more people do these days. And for others it's like a badge of honor to say they don't. Same with Twitter. Either you're a Twitter person or you're adamantly against it.
I have to admit I was wary about getting hooked into something that meant MORE time on the computer. My family is my #1 priority and I refuse to have a keyboard connected to my fingers 24/7. But I finally started a personal Facebook page and while I don't update it much, I really do enjoy keeping up with friends and family in a way that you just don't get on email.
When I re-designed my blog this summer, I decided to start a Mindful Momma fan page on Facebook because, well, it just seemed like the thing to do. Much to my surprise, I'm really enjoying it!! What I love about Facebook is that I can do fun little updates about things that I wouldn't ordinarily write a whole post about. In fact, I've been updating almost daily!! I love that it's so interactive too. So if you like the Mindful Momma blog, then join me on Facebook for more mindful, green & healthy fun!!
While I was at it, I started a fan page for my book too. I'm using it for updates about book events and fun little book-related tidbits. Just to get things rolling, I'm having a little giveaway...become a fan of Practically Green on Facebook for a chance to win a signed copy of the book!! At the end of November I will randomly choose a winner from all of the fans. That's not the only chance for prizes though...on Thursday, November 12th I will be hosting a virtual book release party for Practically Green on the fan page. Stay tuned for more details....
As for Twitter....I can see why some people diss Twitter because if all you are tweeting about is what you had for lunch then I can think of better things to do. What I like about Twitter is that it's a great way to share information. There's a wealth of good stuff to be discovered by following green & healthy types on Twitter. Follow me if you so desire @MindfulMomma.
