The bulk of this post was written during the peak of the cultural exchange. So if you’re about to say “ok, but it’s not that way now” then just hold your horses, we’ll talk about that at the end.

1. The Event

I opened Twitter to look to see what a couple of my Twitter friends were up to and see if there was anything interesting to comment on. I do that periodically, I’ve talked about it before. A lot. Usually Twitter is kinda trash. Someone’s arguing with someone else about something, some stupid asshole is trying to tell us there will be no jobs in 6 months for the third or fourth year in a row. That sort of thing.

Before we begin I just wanted to drop a little note here to let you all know that I’m going to be switching to a once monthly blog post schedule. Taking a little extra time on this one and letting myself not only breathe but polish my thoughts a little bit more has made me realize I was pushing way too hard and spending too much time trying to catch up on writing/editing these.

1. I Was There, Gandalf

Social media and I go back to the Myspace days. I don’t mean the sad corporate version it became after it was sold. I mean Myspace in all its early 2000s glory. Every page played music and most of them looked like someone was hosting a rave. “My Top 8” and who got added/removed or had their rank change was a new kind of gossip.
