The pub analogy or even the Facebook group isn't very good.
Tweeting involves getting your short thoughts evaluated and rated by strangers at scale! You're also regularly aware of the properties required to (potentially) go viral.
It is far more difficult, by design, to encourage better conversations there.
- kelnos 6y agoRight, and I think most conversations in real-time (like in a pub) involve a decent amount of back-and-forth; most don't consist of people trading long blog-post-length monologues. (Though I suppose there's a certain sort of person who pontificates while drunk.) While I'm not a big fan of Twitter, "the character limit encourages a weird conversational style" is not on my list of grievances at all.
