I know the feeling. It can get overwhelming at times. However, I devote 90 minutes per day to social media. I have been doing so since April of this year. I am starting to feel the rain.

It can be overwhelming and addicting....My butt is falling asleep sitting on my couch too much!

This is just a fun post to get a few smiles and a good laugh. We all need that at times.

This post was just a test to pull out all you "Up All Night" bloggers.  I only put it up between midnight and 6:00am so I can see who all the night owls are.  Then I put it back into "draft" mode.  haha...

what a great test...  You two are busted!  (Big Smile) :-))

Brad,

I have to admit that's not me.  You will need extra brain power to do all that networking.  It reminds me of my Tickle Me Tuesday joke.  Check it out  tickle-me-tuesday

1:24am • #6

ahhh... the night owls come out to play...   

Leilani - I live here at AR, so I have learned how to adapt and manage many of these tools, but I know there are some out there that are looking at this right now and laughing their a$$ off.   Either that, or my sense of humor this late at night is really out the window.  lol~ 

Dee - It's not me either, it just looks like me.  hahaha!  Thanks for the tickle. :-)

Hi Brad - It is past my bedtime and I should be in bed, but can't seem to walk away from AR without checking on a dozen or so of my favorite blogs.  Tag - you're it!

Brad -

I'd tag you, too. But you are flying by too fast.  Not sleep walking; sleep flying, I guees.

Hi Brad.  I'm getting in the habit of logging in and looking to comment after 10pm on west coast - so it counts for the next day.  This frees me up to work on all my loans during the day since I am getting so much loan activity from people seeing my posts.

To respond to your post - yeah, I am neglecting Twitter and Facebook since I am getting so much "bang for the buck" with AR.  It can be a full time job if you let it.

1:45am • #10

Guess I got tagged.  :-) 

Truth is, I am typing with one eye open right now, the other is sleeping.  Time to close the other one now too...

"goodnight ya'all, sweet dreams.

1:46am • #11

Rick - smart plan.  Regarding This post?  I just wanted to see who's up this late and thought this was funny. 

C'mon, am I the only one laughing here? 

There is no real message in this post, (or maybe there is) it's a test to see what everyone else makes of it, especially at this hour. 

Interesting to see the responses, especially since I keep messing with everyone and changing the title.  (hehe)

Yet another field test for SEO.   shhhh....  :-))  I think I'm having too much fun here...   goodnight....

Loved the graphic.  How'd you do that?

Hey, if you really put this back into draft mode, do we lose our comment points on it? =)

OK Brad - I don't believe that you're in bed now  ;-)   It's only 12:18am.  I think you should win an award for that graphic.  How the heck did you do that?  I think there will be another famous Brad tutorial coming soon   :-)

2:19am • #15

Ok... time to take this out of "Draft" mode so others can enjoy it and get a laugh too.  :-)  This was originally intended for the "Night Shift Bloggers" only, but I thought our day users would enjoy this too.  haha...

Now how the heck did you post that moving image???  That is just too cool.  I feel like I'm looking at the spinning dial of a Las Vegas slot machine!  ; )

2:49pm • #27


All work and no play? Every so often, I like to have a little fun just to keep it REAL and have balance. Laughter is healthy folks :-)

 


HERE's A MINI TUTORIAL:
for those wondering or asking...

To add an animated image or .gif file is really as easy as 1, 2, 3.

1. Click on in the toolbar above.

2. Enter the URL where the animated gif or file is located:

3. Click on the "Insert" button and the result will be an animated image in your post or comment.  :-)

Brad, you can find me here at 5 a.m., but not after 10:30 p.m. (not during the week, anyway).

And I only 'do' Active Rain ... so you won't find me anywhere else.

It was still good for a chuckle, though. :)

Hello Brad, I have many days that I feel like that.  Glad I finally got a new PC with QuadCore/8 Gigs and W7.  Now I can have a chance to keep up with some if you if that is at all possible.  John

So, w/the tutorial it looks like you posted an animated gif w/an overlay of a still photo.  Right?

If the background of the social media scroll was running in the opposite direction it would look like you jumped off of the social media high rise to infinity somewhere. Now go and make a big pot of social media stew and savor the flavor.

Brad- first, after my head quit spinning, I loved it! An you knew we'd all be asking how you did it and sure enough, you showed us. Many thanks.

You're a nut!  I love it.  As with most things in my life, I am at least a day behind...  (that's what little babies up all night do to you!)  That graphic is awesome, but I am still laughing from the Conan O'Brian - Twitface video from the other day.

I needed that just too funny.

Amy - I saw that episode the other day too and it made me think of this, haha. That's too funny!  What was it he said," The three social networks would merge together one day to be called youtwitface.com"  That's the only time I think that man ever really made me laugh. :-)

OK Brad, you caught me with my good side showing...

I just re-blogged this with the following introduction...

I was scrolling through some of my favorite bloggers - looking for an edge...maybe some new technology that I haven't yet grasped.  You know how it is...seem like technology never lets us catch up any more.

It seems like only yesterday when my TV Remote control went up or down one channel at a time...and my VCR Remote has a 12' cable attached to it...and I was smokin' cool...the head of the class...a real trend setter.

Now I feel like the poor guy that brad seemed to capture so well...

That's funny John, I know exactly what you mean.  Thanks for the reblog my friend, I know alot of people got a kick out of this one. :-)
