Are we really as connected as we think we are?

As I lay in bed (for like day three) I have come to the conclusion that while I may think I'm uber-connected, I am really not.  Yes, I have multiple e-mail accounts and I have Facebook and I have Twitter, and a blog and I even have a cell phone and a land line and none of that matters at all...

When...

The people you need to connect with don't use them.

Here I am in isolation (thanks piggy), and trying to engage but the people I need to engage with use email.  And they don't respond very quickly. So while I sit here in bed, with really nothing to do, ready to do something, I cannot because I do not have the information I need that was shared with others in Face to Face meetings over the past few days.

So much for being connected.
