I have a problem with notions such as ‘twittersphere’, ‘blogosphere’ and all the other ‘…spheres’. They imply that there is that ‘other sphere’ out there somewhere that has nothing to do with everyday ‘down to earth’ life. They also imply that the ‘…sphere-less’ life is a technologically unmediated life, where ‘real people’ exist and ‘real interaction’ happens.
As far as I am concerned: I am not a blogger; I blog. I am not a twitterer; I twitter. I am not a facebooker; I enjoy facebooking. I am not defined by social media; I define them.
