I don’t want to join Boxbe, Spock or Diigo or, for that matter, any of the social network/knowledge-sharing/e-mail services that people have been nice enough to extend invitations recently.
It’s good to be asked but there’s already enough social stuff on my plate what with blogging, Twitter, Friendfeed and, from time to time, Facebook. The last thing I want or need is yet another service to seize my attention.
I realize everyone has good intentions because there are a lot of cool services that they want other people to be involved with, but time is becoming a scarcity for anyone who spends a healthy portion of their time online.
If there was a way to post a “no vacancy” sign on my digital front yard, it would have been up long ago. There is no more room at the inn; I’m absolutely full and can’t eat another byte of whatever digital service you’re serving up, etc.

In other words, thanks but no thanks.
