plogging?

Posted on 9 October 201515 October 2015 By antipaucity 2 Comments on plogging?

Wired Magazine recently had an article on the rise of “plogging“. By their definition, “plogging” is “PLatform blOGGING” – or blogging as part of a network/site/service (DZone, LinkedIn, Medium, Facebook, etc) instead of running your own blog somewhere (WordPress.com, Blogger, self-hosted WordPress, etc). This seems to be a modern representation of what newspapers, magazines, etc…

“like” problems: social ‘voting’ is a bad idea

Posted on 16 September 201528 April 2022 By antipaucity 6 Comments on “like” problems: social ‘voting’ is a bad idea

The news story making the rounds about Facebook the past few days indicates they’re working on a kind of “dislike” button. The problem with the Facebook “like” button is the same problem Google has with Google+ and their “+1” button: it doesn’t tell you anything meaningful. Voting on Reddit doesn’t really convey much meaning, either….

the loss of the shared social experience

Posted on 8 April 20158 April 2015 By antipaucity 1 Comment on the loss of the shared social experience

On a recent trip I met up with an old friend and his wife for dinner. As conversation progressed, I mentioned my wife and I have been watching M*A*S*H on Netflix. Waxing nostalgic for a moment, he told me that his parents let him stay up to watch the series finale in 1983. And then…

apps on the network

Posted on 14 July 201414 July 2014 By antipaucity 3 Comments on apps on the network

{This started as a Disqus reply to Eric’s post. Then I realized blog comments shouldn’t be longer than the original post 🙂 } The app-on-network concept is fascinating: and one I think I’ve thought about previously, too. Hypothetically, all “social networks” should have the same connections: yet there’s dozens upon dozens (I use at least…

what viability would a subscription-based social networking service have?

Posted on 9 April 20149 April 2014 By antipaucity 7 Comments on what viability would a subscription-based social networking service have?

You see stories like this one, and you wonder how Facebook is continuing to make it. So many people I know are either leaving, or reducing their involvement (including myself), that is seems it is destined to be the next MySpace. Over the past couple years, I have seen companies advertise themselves by giving links…

community building is hard

Posted on 14 March 20148 July 2014 By antipaucity 9 Comments on community building is hard

Establishing and building a community around a common interest is hard. After exhausting your network of friends, coworkers, neighbors, etc – the only way of getting new folks into the community is to aggressively campaign and advertise to them. Let’s say you’re a technical user group (like a couple of the ones I’m a part…

a week without facebook…

Posted on 6 March 20146 March 2014 By antipaucity 1 Comment on a week without facebook…

…and a week to go. Normally, I take about one big break for the book of the face every year – generally when my wife and I take a vacation somewhere 🙂 This year we’re upping the ante: while home – and accessible via SMS, email, Twitter, phone, Google+, etc – I’m on a two…
