The Future is Here!

In the 1960's, The Jetsons, an animated show (we still called them cartoons back then) showed life in the 21st century - push button magic, everything easier - until the humans mess things up. The title of this blog is from the opening sequence - when George gets stuck on the automatic dog-walking treadmill. Sometimes I think social media is like that show - a wonderful move into the future, but dragging along enough human nature to mess things up every now and then.
This blog was created for Dr. Frechette's Social Media class; if you are reading this for examples, assignments are in the posts for 2012 - later posts are simply additional examples of the wisdom that comes with age.

I noticed some issues with Slide-share conversions. Until I get a good transfer, here are some resources related to my presentation on Aging with Social Media. In addition, here is a link to a PDF version of the PowerPoint presentation.
