@sunshine @justin (ahem) arguing without warning [dynomight.net] touches on some of the social media we were talking aboult last night. I would just note that, social media is a melting pot of use-cases, and this response is taking things uber seriously.

@sunshine With social media being so widely used, some stances are overly sensitive on its significance. Jobs and lives are made and lost over social media, but, it's also spam and snide remarks over the water cooler.

@sunshine So, its children except pass-through from other media can be suspect en masse.

@sunshine It should be fun! IMO.

@33MHz I'd say it should be useful, and that fun is a use.

@sunshine I think social media is too socially cumbersome (attention span, for example), gamed, and technically unreliable to use for anything that isn't just fun.

@sunshine the threshold for failure is too low on social media. It's an absurdist medium.
