I get the point, but as I mentioned it all comes down to how the system works.
Svven for example puts together people tweeting same links. Tweeting, not liking. Two tweets containing same link can have very different and often contradictory messages.
To give a practical example, some of you probably noticed PG's controversial tweet about unions (https://twitter.com/paulg/status/663456748494127104 https://twitter.com/paulg/status/663456748494127104), and also the reply that took double the likes of that (https://twitter.com/MarkAmesExiled/status/663495439069614080 https://twitter.com/MarkAmesExiled/status/663495439069614080).
Because the reply contained the link to PG's tweet, in Svven you can see all sides of this story around the same link.
- japhyr 11y ago> Two tweets containing same link can have very different and often contradictory messages. That sounds really interesting! I like how that might impact people's bubbles. I'm currently teaching a class where students are learning to build simple apps, and ask critical questions about the apps we use. Would you be interested in doing a skype session with my class (~12 students) about how you and your team are approaching this issue, from a social and technical perspective? They'd love it, and you might get some good insights into how high school students think about these issues in deciding which apps to use.
- ducuboy 11y agoWow I'm really flattered! And also a little worried given your description of some of your students :P But sure, it should be interesting, also because Svven is built in Python and I see this is what you teach. I just followed you on Twitter, I'm @ducu, let's DM there.
