People spend hours on Facebook interacting with their friends. I know people who have met significant others through Twitter.
And what about Groupon? Google? There are countless examples.
- nir 16y agoPeople had friends and met significant others before the internet. I'm not saying these apps are bad (they are both bad and good) but that in the bottom line the world isn't necessarily better or worse.
- grails4life 16y agoI know people who met on AOL instant messenger. Big Deal
- achompas 16y agoTerrible example by me, sure. But do you know of any Middle Eastern revolutions supported by AIM? Long form journalism ala @MayorEmanuel? Any academic studies examining mood on AIM and how it correlates to stock market performance?
- mkramlich 16y agoAgreed. 1980: I know people that met at a local Young Republicans mixer. 1975: I know people that met at a disco and/or roller derby 50,000 BC: I know people that met in a cave.
