Social Media Slant
Social Media Slant
David Amerland on the other side of social media. Is the social media world "flat?"
Thoughts on being yourself while filtering your social media group. Self-feeding can be delusional.
Be original. Paradoxically, you don’t have to create original content in order to be original. You just need to be able to explain its importance and why it’s worth sharing.

What if I told you the world was flat?
It only takes a "flat Earth" proposition to clearly define the limits of my 'power' :) Yet, on things that are not quite so clear-cut content I (and others like me) share inevitably creates an impression of the trends that affect our world.
Is there a danger that this kind of activity skews perception? yes, and it's not new, either. the scale, obviously is different to the real-world. But consider this also. I am discussing it openly here, aware that by drawing attention to it I am, in a sense, inoculating the network from some of my ability to unduly influence it. Truth and connections that really matter, matter to all of us, regardless.
