Gizmodo's Mat Honan defends social media

If you are like me, most of your daily interactions with other people take place electronically. You probably interact with a greater number of distinct individuals via emails, tweets, Facebook updates, chats, and text message than you do verbally or in person. Unless you have a job that requires a great deal of public interaction like, say, a sales clerk at a busy department store.

Again, you need to be able to process those relationships quickly and efficiently. It's a basic tool for modern life. Yet that does not mean that your interactions in those mediums are any less genuine, or less soulful, even if they take place more rapidly.

February 1, 2011 - Tweeting DeVitos

Just after she was "downsized", Katie DeVito founded NJ Unemployed as a means for individuals who are unemployed in NJ to come together and share stories, experiences and struggles.  Katie leveraged the skills she learned organizing and promoting events to launch her own Social Media and Public Relation consulting company just a few months later.

I met Katie and Nick last year first on twitter and then in person during an event hosted by Mrs. G's TV & Appliances.  I started calling them the "tweeting DeVito's".

Ever since then we've met-up for drinks and at other events around the Princeton area.  Yesterday during the #140diner event (at Mastori's in Bordentown, NJ) I captured this shot of them in action.
