Wednesday Rewind: The 10 Levels of Intimacy in Today’s Communication

Dec 05. 2012

Once in a while, when I get bored, I like to look through the archives of this blog and reflect upon (and laugh at!) all the things I have shared with the web over the years. Because, heck, after 1,801 posts, even I don't remember everything. There's also the braggart in me who likes to shout, "Hey! I once wrote this years ago!
