I'm most active on Facebook. I'm also on Twitter, and I blog. Linked In is important to me for business-related connections. Whichever media you choose, they say it's important to engage with your followers.

But blogging and Facebook are great, too, because they allow for deeper connections. So, I guess it all serves a purpose. :)Sarah Forgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09101753891967001104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-63209169055755078972011-08-15T17:29:44.888-04:002011-08-15T17:29:44.888-04:00Hi Melanie -
