I have been posting to this blog for well over 5 years now, and the silence is deafening, as I almost never receive any comments. It seems that this phenomenon is common. In an attempt to have a bit more conversation (without being overwhelmed) I am going to try using Google+ systematically, in addition to this blog. I think Twitter is still a step too far for me, because I don’t understand how to deal with the deluge of tweets.

This article seems a useful one for researchers new to social media.
