> ... the ways I used Twitter [etc] > ... completely different than they way they are used today. Are you conflating the way that you would interact with a social media site, and the way that most people would -- rather than comparing both sets of people over time? TFA's focus is on the addictive aspect of FB (etc) -- and clearly FB (etc) are constantly improving their psychological toolkit in order to obtain and retain eyeballs -- but I don't think the quantifying of likes is the main tool in their kit. Worse, they're not likely to voluntarily reduce the efficacy of their methods.
