A year later...

-Twitter: for me, awesome as an information tool. However, I'm not interested if you're letting everyone know you're about to have dinner. If that's what's interesting in your life... Don't get me wrong: I'm fine if 50% of the posts are like this... but not 95%. And, foremost, don't tweet me you're enjoying a theater play, or a movie, or a dinner. If you really were, you wouldn't be wasting your time writing that. Just let me know how it was.

-Facebook: thank God I don't have 300 "friends". Why would I let strangers know what I'm thinking, what I did last night, and so on? If you truly have 300 friends, then you must have the perfect job ever (networking), or at least, a very good one (I do, and I only have a quarter of that). There should be a chance that even one of them could connect you. If not, I don't see the reason for that amount of people digging what you're up to. Hint: find people who can help you.

I'm amazed at how people get some things close to heart (like the Iranian elections) for a month, and then it's over. I can't recall watching on the news that Iran has had new elections. Whatever happened to that "social movement"?

Social media: that's the new "reality show". Too bad we (in general) are not using it as it should. It could be a very productive and a game changer. Once again, when people post that they're going to see a movie... I think I'll blame MTV and VH1 for developing and increasing stupidity at a faster rate, which leads to people to post incredible stupid stuff, which creates a snowball for the rest to follow.

Solution: open your own blog, discharge your anger, stupidity, your whereabouts, and so on. Let people know what you did. You'll have more than 140 characters.

Just like I did.
