  • 10:01 @sixball @kevin_rapley ‘mainstream’ users are more interested in tighter /closed social groupings? Just a ill thought out theory of the morn #
  • 10:04 Twittering a review of Here Comes Everybody (on and off) today #
  • 10:10 The sidekick story is about the "digital devide" in a way. Is social media a class thing? #

  • 15:17 "barey motivated people can be effective" #
