The "Touch"

How often do you touch others? Besides the physical touch, what about on line touches, or a phone call or even a hand written card. The purpose of the Touch is multi faceted. The basic idea is to communicate and stay in touch with others.
In person is best of course. A phone call is good but it can take up a lot of time. A card is good and something the other party can touch. E-mails are good but what all do we write about.

Many times my touch revolves around the social networking tools ie: LinkedIn, Facebook, Plaxo, Twitter etc. When I see a change in another's status, or a new picture, or a question it allows me the opportunity to drop them a quick note. No requests or needed replies, just a note of recognition. That also brings me to their attention ever so slightly.

Think about it, try it.
