A social media hoarder intervention~By Chris Abraham
Are
you a social media hoarder? Is it time for a bit of a social media
spring cleaning? What defines you? Your current creativity, expertise,
and work? Or, all the stuff you’ve posted since the beginning of your
social media life, including your blogs, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Friendster, MySpace, Flickr, YouTube,
et al. Professional organizers recommend donating, recycling, or
throwing out everything you own that you have not used in the last
six-months. Online, however, we’ve been trailing all of our keepsakes
behind us like streamers. This spring, do a massive curation of your
online properties. Are there hobbies and professions that are safely in
your past that you can prune from your online reputation? Are there
hobbies and experiences that don’t define you any more?
This spring is a brilliant time to get rid of anything and everything
that bears no relevance to your current professional life outside of
those keepsakes that really accentuate who you are and what you have to
offer. You don’t want to cut out the fact that you’re a Forbes Social Media Power Influencer, for example.
