And 5 years from now, Twitter will be as irrelevant as Dodgeball. When are people going to figure out that most of this net stuff is just a series of silly fads of no import and no lasting consequence. I thank the atheist god every day that I do not consider myself "old and irrelevant" for not desperately trying to keep up with all this nonsense, but instead pat myself on the back for not buying into this nonsense.

CNET News' Caroline McCarthy is a downtown Manhattanite who believes that, despite popular opinion, the Web can actually help your social life. She's happily addicted to fun social-media tools from Twitter to Yelp to Facebook, sends an inordinate number of text messages, and has a tendency to waste time at the office reading restaurant blogs. Here, she explores all facets of the Web's gregarious side, as well as the unique tech culture in her home city of New York. (Don't call it Silicon Alley.)
