It was going for 11:00 PM when I realized, yesterday, that it was Monday and I needed to write a blog post. So this morning while racking my brain for a decent topic, I took a quick break to scroll through Facebook. That was when it hit me, a perfect topic.
My daughter-in-law use to work for the CBC. On our last visit (not for a wedding) she would scroll through Facebook and other social media looking for topics to pitch, while we sat around chatting and having our morning coffee. Something I only thought about this morning as I scrolled through Facebook, not looking for ideas but, hoping that my brain would think of something while I was otherwise engaged.
Using social media in this way is not something that I would normally consider. For me, Facebook, Pinterest, and the like are simply ways to amuse myself and pass the time. So while, I kind of borrowed her technique by accident, her technique became my blog post topic.
