I feel ready to re-engage with social media. I have words I can articulate; le jeu, blasé, se met comfortable et se laisse passer.
But where to even start? Nowhere is cool anymore.
I wish my thoughts and insights were a bit more whimsical, but life gets so grown-up.
I miss David Lynch’s weather reports already. I remember listening to them on KROQ in LA back in 2006/7.
Such a little slice of bizarre delight for almost 20 years.
Thinking.
Networks with low user bases but extraordinary reach are not Social Networks. They are Influence Networks. There are varying degrees of influence networks, and I believe this description better aligns with the monetisation model.
Don’t confuse them with Social Networks, which have essentially fallen apart (at least the 1.0 form).
…And don’t confuse Social Networks with Social Graphs.
The next social network could be built on this social graph, but there’s a lot to build.
