But even your Farmer may have to get on the social network bus by necessity. Take this exchange I had on the phone recently:
Me: (to my 15yo niece) We should keep in touch, Natasha.
Natasha: Well, why don’t you friend me on Facebook?
Me: Sorry. I don’t have a Facebook account.
Natasha:
Me: Well, why don’t you send me an email?
Natasha:
Me: OK! What’s your email address?
Natasha: I got lots of them. Which one do you want?
Me:
Natasha: I dunno. Gmail?
Me: GREAT! What’s your email address there?
Natasha: I got lots of 'em. I don’t know, try this one
Me: Perfect. I’ll send something there when I go online. You will check it, right?
Natasha: I guess.
Why do I feel like Harry MacAfee (Paul Lynde) in the movie Bye Bye Birdie?
