well, technically not exactly because we all suffer from it from time to time. listening to people who never have anything remotely interesting to say, or people who you are dating that talk about shit you don't care about, so we all have it in doses. what i am talking about is twitter and things akin to that which facebook seems to be suffering from at the moment.
For some reason it seems like more and more people like getting all of there news in short twitter segments or youtube clips or something to where they don't have to think or come up with anything interesting to say other then...Sitting in my chair now!....that type of stuff just seems so mundane and disconnected from anything that would otherwise interest me. i don't care if you just shampooed your hair and it not greasy anymore. i really don't care.
It's great that i have wifi service on my phone and can look certain things up but it's even more sad when a luxury service such as facebook is 110 times better on my mobile phone browser then on my laptop. does anyone at Facebook talk to it's users about what are great features and what should not change? i really don't think they do. i would be happy to pay $10 a month to facebook to go back to the format that made me fall in love with it back in october of 08. since then we have had way to many changes and it has become a crap product.
in order to innovate you need to make sure you target your customer. Myspace is for finding people to fuck. Twitter is for slow teens and adults a like that really think that we need to know all of your mundane details of your life and with no substance. Blogspot is for substance and being fully self adsorbed that you really think that people really care that much to read whole fragmented thoughts put into paragraph form. I like substance, but i also like quick quips about things that are on others minds at the moment it gives it a freshness and uniqueness.
when i fell in love with facebook it was somewhere a mix between all three of those, but now, it is leaning toward the slow teen/twitter category vs. a mix of all things that make us and it unique. facebook used to seem more realistic, but now i notice people not using real names switching them all the time, and that is frustrating. People are fine without writing Notes/Blogs now because apparently you can say all you need to say in a status update, and to that i say snap out of your ADD and learn to craft a thought.
Sincerely,
Icy Mike
