This guy makes a lot of good points. Like him, I use Google for pretty much everything. It's the first page I see when I open Chrome. It's this account that I'm using to blog this post. It's where I found this video. (Now that I think about it, Google does seem to have a monopoly effect on a lot of things... eg. Chrome, Blogger, YouTube, etc.) I choose how I want to connect with others. I could, but it's unlikely that I will hand-write letters or call long-distance to my friends or family. There was a point where I resisted Facebook for as much as I could. I wasn't ready giving up my HTML personalized page. I tried holding desperately onto my MySpace account, but the masses left. I grew to love Facebook though. Now I feel the same could be happening with Google+. How I see it, there's no point in fighting it. I use Google+ (alongside Facebook--for now at least).

haha thats so true. Its crazy how huge social media cites have become and how dependent we are on them. Good thing I've already transferred over to google+ :D so dependent or not, I'm prepared.
