Social/Digital Exhaustion Facebook will break the 1 billion user mark in 2012, but its numbers have flattened out in the U.S. Twitter is growing; it may have as many 450 million users, but no one knows how many people are really active users. Google+ is growing steadily, but is still well behind the two most established networks and much of the public is unaware of its existence. There is the now persistent, with good reason, backlash against mobile phone usage in cars and on streets. In general, more and more people seem to be reevaluating their social and digital existence. Even the SOPA battle is revealing some unforeseen schisms. The Stop Online Piracy Act is a bad idea, not because piracy is good, but because of the plan for enforcement is wrong and dangerous. That said, no one who creates content can deny that the digital revolution hasn’t forced them to rethink how they create, sell and distribute content. There are no easy answers here and 2012 will be a year of introspection; one where we possibly rewrite the rules of content, copyrights and social interactions.

They say that social media is ruining our brain. What do you think?
Twitter is a serendipity machine. By my definition serendipity is unexpected relevance. It is that moment when you say, ‘Aha! Just what I wanted. Where did that come from?’ Through the links I get from people I know, like, and respect on Twitter, I experience many such moments every day. They expose me to links, news, and people with a better likelihood of unexpected relevance than a mass-market publication with a single editor could ever deliver.
