I’m starting to think that active participation in social media must be like dispatching trucks.  Or maybe like the job of an air traffic controller?

• Sending stories over here
• Sending stories over there
• Comments chase after stories
• “Let’s go get the vote out!”
  • Hey, that’s a good story, let’s tell everyone!
  • Over here!  Over here!  Over here!
  • All right, we’ve landed this baby (on the home page!)

Am I nutty?  What do you think?
