- irishcoffee 11y agoAllow me to introduce you to facebook. =pp
- kelukelugames 11y agoMedium's Twitter account tweets a lot of clickbait. It's sad.
- Yhippa 11y agoReminds me of this article in general. The author sure did get a lot of mileage out of that one Tweet. This is a best case scenario for her as a writer. Free publicity!
- Retra 11y agoI'm baffled that you would think Twitter had the ability to be anything else. The site basically mandates that you compress all your messages into trivialize-able sound bites.
- oska 11y agoNot true. Twitter allows you to makes a brief introduction to a linked article. I use twitter almost exclusively to follow individuals I respect, so I can be aware of new things they have written (or that they recommend).
- Retra 11y agoYou're not disagreeing with me. You're just saying that Twitter's propensity to allow people to advertise themselves to you happened to work.
