I mentioned getting a new router last week. Now, to set up a router you need to get to the configuration page. This requires a username and password. The username and password were in the user manual.

The CD that came with the router? Did not include the user manual. It had a link to the website that had the user manual. This would have been very useful, except we needed the manual to set up Internet access. Seriously, Linksys. Why would you do that?

I was going to try to make a Venn diagram showing this. It looked horrible and didn't really contain much information. But out of the 326 of you who use social networks, 308 of you are on Facebook. We don't have any kind of social media strategy, but if we did, that's where we'd concentrate our resources.

I'm on all three. You can see my Twitter account on the sidebar, when I have something interesting to say and time to say it and it's under 140 characters. That's a rare overlap these days.
I'm on Google+, but like everybody else, I have no idea what to do with it. I got on early, when people were begging for invitations; it was like Facebook, except nobody I knew was on it. And the whole point of Facebook is that it's just this website, except everybody you know is on it. I played the put-people-into-circles game for a bit, and that seems to be the funnest thing there.
