Because I'm Lazy

 

I am copying this article which says a lot about how we think today  A few seconds of terminal gratification and on we go  What is that all about  How much has been gained  This blog is eclectic and may touch on a few lives around the globe  Rather than paraphrase getpocket.com here is their view on social media  I think it is worth looking at

 See why the internet has turned us back to the Tower of Babel

"If you’ve ever wondered how social media is changing our society, we’re finally seeing a debate that’s not just a bunch of hot takes. Professors from the world’s leading universities are now weighing in, taking into account a vast body of studies to draw conclusions about the actual impact of Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, etc. on the way we live."

"I’m a longtime technology journalist and host a show called Big Technology Podcast where some of the key players in this debate recently appeared. Today, I’m going to share the research I did before speaking with our guests. And as you read these articles—and hopefully listen to the episodes—my hope is you’ll come away better equipped to assess how these social platforms are changing our lives and communities."

The internet is not new The novelty should have worn off long before the first $200 computer was sold
