Guy tweeting after the plane crash was amazing (http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008...). Instant news. My non-twittering wife's reaction? Eye-roll, "why?"
I agree, Josh. 'How' is more important here than 'why' - Dee S.
She maintains a healthy skepticism about all this social media stuff. Glad she does. - Hutch Carpenter
Hutch, same here. My wife isn't even on Facebook yet. - Mike Doeff
Mike - it's good to have the offline spouse. - Hutch Carpenter
Mike: that's coming soon. Josh: talk to Maryam about this. She'll tell you what she's seeing. She met her elementary school best friend who lives in Paris on Facebook. They hadn't seen each other for 22 years. - Robert Scoble
My preschool/elementary/middle/high school friends are all discovering FB these days and finding me on there. I just found my 8th grade sweetheart after 25 years of zero contact. - Bora Zivkovic
On the other hand, if I've been in a crash in Denver, I know my wife would have appreciated tweeting - knowing I am alive and OK instantly. - Bora Zivkovic
My wife is on Facebook. It's how she knows what I'm up to on FriendFeed. - Hutch Carpenter
Twitter is just really not for some people no matter what. My fiancee is pretty web savvy but was on Twitter for like 2 weeks before she got tired of it. She is a Facebooker for life though. - Devlin Dunsmore from twhirl
Facebook was a concession to social media by my wife. But now that she's on it, she loves it. - Hutch Carpenter
