OK, It's not spring anymore, it's summer - not that you can tell from the fog, drizzle and chilly wind driven rain - but as far as the date is concerned, it's the first week of summer.
So, spring cleaning - I looked at my virtual world and decided it was far too cluttered!
I did that thing you're meant to do with your possessions and clothing. Have I used/worn this in the last 6 months/year? No? Bin It!
LinkedIn? Gone. Deleted.
Twitter? Ditto.
Various email addresses (wow! so much junk accumulates when accounts not touched for months) now deleted.
Extra Facebook profiles - Gone! (Sorry to see you go... Really?? Hardly Old Son!)
My Virtual Alter Egos have been purged, and now I feel decidedly uncluttered. Suddenly my smartphone Hub app has 3 entries instead of 7. I'm sure servers all over the world are breathing a collective sigh of relief as tons of spam gets erased from dormant accounts.
My security must be tighter too now. Facebook and three email accounts - Gmail, Ymail and Live
(Just in case - you never know when you might need one of the Big 3!) - so much easier to keep track of! And with the recent LinkedIn password hack scare, perhaps that's not a bad thing?
So Thank You spring, for the inspiration to simplify my e-Life. I feel positively tidier!
