I think that maybe we’ve done some serious harm to the concept of friends with all this social media stuff.
Seriously.
On Facebook, how many of your friends are really friends?
I have over 2000 followers on Twitter. How many of them know my real name without looking?
How many events do people with significant online personal brand go to where people know who they really are?
Or is brand all that really matters in friendship?
Is it more important to have presence? Or relationship?
What do we do off camera, and who really knows?
If a tree falls in the middle of the woods, and everyone sees the tree online, did it really happen?
Do you find more value in spending time with four people or forty?
What does technosailor mean to you? Aaron Brazell?
Food for thought. Questions to be answered. Have we hurt our human experience or helped?
