Do any of you mayors use any form of social media? I ask because whenever I tell someone that I have no form of social media whatsoever- I do not count this forum as social media- they always react so surprised. I am probably old school in that I prefer to keep up with my friends via a phone call or setting up a lunch or outing, and yes, I still write letters. Is this really that uncommon?

Yes! I use Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, and Snapchat. I also have a Twitter, but I don't use it. However, I do write letters occasionally, and I would rather meet up in person.
No, it's not completely uncommon. The only social media site I visit (and that's like... once every 3 months) is Tumblr. I don't see the point of Twitter at all and I got over Facebook years ago. I also write letters but I prefer to text / call instead.
I use Facebook but only in extremely rare instances. I joined it before it really blew up and now there's so much "junk" on it and so many issues with the company as a whole that I tend to stay away from it. It's really just so I can keep up with what my friends are doing, but I don't really communicate with them over it.
I understand how beneficial social media can be, it just hasn't been worth it for me to join a lot of SM sites.

Writing letters is probably uncommon, yes. I get the same surprised looks when people find out I don't have a cell phone or Facebook account, or a twitter... but then again I have a billion Tumblrs so that probably makes up for it. I don't know if I'd count this forum as "traditional" social media either... I'm with you on that one.
I keep in touch with most friends via skype though, to be honest. Many of them live very far away from me - like, across the country or in different countries altogether - so meeting up would be impossible, and those that DO live close enough aren't able to get together as often as we used to due to personal stuff that's come up. I really do love sitting down for coffee with my cousin when he's free, though. He's one of few people I interact with better offline than on.

I use instagram 
Same reason I deactivated mine. Facebook didn't mean much to me so it wasn't a big loss.
I used to have a Facebook, but I deactivated it 2 years ago. I also had a Twitter, but I don't really know what happened to that. Right now the only way I keep in contact with my friends is through text message.

Does YouTube count? Aside from that no. Facebook and Twitter are boring to me.

No I hate social media xD I have a fb but it's used on rare occasions
Not really. I prefer having contact with friends/family by text messages or e-mail. I'm not really into the idea of daily harvesting messages on a ton of social networks from who most of are useless. I don't understand what hapenned to the let's hangout at my place sentences, the only thing I hear nowadays is give me your twitter/facebook/instagram/google+/ect.
I use twitter to check up on my idols but I don't have an account for it, or any other social media aside from snapchat. aaand i only have snapchat because my friend kept bugging me about it and it's easy to keep in touch with school buddies w/o the awkwardness of texting.
