Ok, I didn't know that. But you would agree that the social networking scene has changed a lot since 2011. Facebook was so much more personal and fun back then.

Ok, I didn't know that. But you would agree that the social networking scene has changed a lot since 2011. Facebook was so much more personal and fun back then. I was just brooding over the fact that the Jordan pilot was burnt alive by IS two days back and not a single post about the incident showed up on my feed (I've 400 friends on fb). And I used to be quite vocal about such things 2-3 years back, but even I've lost interest in posting anything emotional now. Social networks have just become tools for marketeers and a personalized newsletter for me, with the occasional comments and likes I would make on a friend's post.
- wutbrodo 12y agoTotally agree. A simple "X didn't happen before so it won't happen now" is missing the fact that the environment has massively changed with respect to usage and influence of Twitter and Google. As I said though, this change has been in _favor_ of Twitter if anything (which stands to reason, since Google was already a leviathan by then and Twitter was still quite young). So if anything one would expect the push to sacrifice Twitter's quality for SEO on Google to be less.
