I Love Social Media (part 1)

 If only social media was a woman. Is what I keep thinking to myself. As the saying goes..."There's plenty of fish in the sea". So many options so many websites. Just unlimited access to all types of information. It's almost like having your own ancient Monk/Guru/Master at your finger tips. Before eBay I would have to physically go from town to town sometimes state to state searching for hip-hop music. Walmart didn't sell cussing music. We only had the House of Sound and you had to place an order for whatever tape you wanted. Seem like it never came neither. The owner always use to say try again tomorrow or come back next week.Sometime in the early 2000's came Basic Printing which had current music and had it on CD. He had the lastest hit mixtape ever weekend. He use to set shop by the store at the Talladega/Ashland county line every Friday. Bam!!! Then YouTube came out. I was loving it. I had so songs in my head so to look at the actual music video was like deleting old stored memory banks. I never liked napster. Between the transition I had a guy make personal cds for me for $5. So when I look back on how many cds you had to have to listen to your favorite songs as to downloading them to a cellphone I call that progress. Boy,do I love social media.
