Do you have a &#8220;Contact Us&#8221;, &#8220;Contact Me&#8221;, or any other type of the &#8220;Contact&#8221; page? This has been a web default for years, but the popularity of all-things-social got me thinking that what we often really want is to <em>connect </em>with other people. Not simply <em>contact</em> them.</p>
<p>This is why I changed my own &#8216;contact&#8217; page to make it easer for people who read or come across my site to connect with me. I am most active on twitter these days as <a href="http://twitter.com/communicable">@communicable</a>, but you can also find me on other networks and platforms.</p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t about me, though. I wonder how this contact Vs. connect dilemma applies to bigger organizations. In our efforts to humanize the nonprofit and corporate worlds, I vote for getting rid of the contact us page. How about you? </span></p>
