Here’s to Josh, my local
barber (not the guy in this picture).
This is what social
networking used to look like. There are
places in your community where people come to do something functional while
they experience neighborliness – if that’s a word. In a lot of cases, like a haircut, it doesn’t
take any more time to be neighborly. And it takes so little extra thought to
choose the neighborly option over other less connected approaches to getting
things done.
Can you think of other “social
networks” in your community that offer this kind of two-for-one? Accomplish a
task and strengthen a bond at the same time.
