how do you manage social media and external influences on your art?

[Madzia]

My personal source of all art on the Internet is RSS reader (Feedly) with carefully selected blogs/DA/and galleries (still it's 600+ pages) But there's no "noise" that you notice. I don't use facebook at all, I never found it useful. And socially, I have weeks that I don't even turn on Skype so nobody is interfering me. I know that this might be extreme compering to your situation, and this does not work in my favor, people only know me from forums cuz forums are the fastest way of communication and least demanding.
I'm working in company and my time for personal work is very limited, my social skills suffers from it and I should try to find better solution but I'm afraid my art will suffer from it more.
