I try to set aside certain times during the day to visit the social media sites and then step away. I probably could use to be on the sites even more. I dont think they interfere with my life.

It's as much a tool as anything else. I use it as an organizational tool and I also use it to draw traffic. You're right, I don't ever stop using it either. Karen,

However, I often become friends with people I meet at the first group of sites, and I feel tempted to use the second group as marketing tools. As you can see, sometimes it's hard to sustain that separation and this is when things start going wrong for me, due to excessive time spent in unproductive activities. Normally I try to solve it by radically cutting down the time spent on almost all social media sites; I "abandon" them for several weeks. The only one I never, ever stay away from is del.icio.us, because it's an extremely powerful tool that helps me in several projects of mine.
