This is comes from current cleaning of my mobile where I've decided to uninstall unused, if rarely used, apps alongside deleting or moving pictures and vids to a flash drive. I'm also thinking how I have been using social media and eliminating any accounts that aren't actually needed.
Facebook. Yes. Real Name. Main purpose to keep in touch w/ friends and family. Barely uploads pics.
Snapchat: No.
Instagram: No.
Twitter: Yes. Alias.
Viper: Yes. Real Name. Mainly used to talk to relative overseas.
Skype: Yes. Only used a few times to communicate w/ group projects; might keep it if group calls are needed.
I suppose you can count Linkedln as social media, and I do have an account, but my primary purpose are career networking and just putting my work experience up. I don't do anything on it besides those two. I am looking to make my own website where my CV will be present so I'm not sure where that would leave my Linkedln's profile since it'll make it redundant, but I suppose it's good to have just because it's become a staple among working professionals.
Compared to my peers and Gen. Y my use of social media is rather narrow since I don't use snapchat and instagram. An alias is used on twitter so I don't even count that. Viper and Skype are used only for specific purposes.
The criteria if an app would be kept are:
1. What it's purpose?
2. How often do I use it?
3. Why do I use it?
4. Is this app adding anything of value to my life?
5. Do I really need it?
Of course, this goes for spring cleaning your closet for anything that "builds up" (e.g., clothes, entertainment material, decorations, books).
As for this blog, it's just a way to pour my thoughts into. No one besides me and random visitors are aware of its existence.
