The bathtub and bicycle were preached against as "sinful". As with all tools, as has been said, we must ignore what the myopic masses do with it, and figure out our own purpose for these social media, status update tools. I like Twitter for distributing insights and links. I judge other Twitterers by their tweets. All myopic drivel, I bypass them. But if they say smart things, and provide cool links, and news updates on technology, I add them as Friends to Follow.

By the way, oldtimes (in a Net sense) will remember “JenniCam”. Who spawned imitators and a cam-fad.

Everything old is new again …

It's like my RSS habits--there are people to whom I subscribe because I want to see everything they put out. Then there's my doggdot.us subscription, which helps me discover what's new and interesting. Tony,

Cheers t @ dji Chris,
