The Narrative
Whether intentional or not, an attempt to paint Bluesky as one type of thing has taken hold in the press. A bad narrative is hard to shake, even if it’s unfair. As a user, don’t be afraid to push back.

Not Ready For The Camera
Why hasn’t video completely killed text-based social media, despite social platforms clearly favoring it? Simple: By its very nature, it excludes voices from the discussion.

The Facebook Timeline is the nearest thing I've seen to a digital identity (and it's creepy as hell)
As an application developer, I have advance access to the Facebook Timeline that Mark Zuckerberg announced yesterday. Here it is: At first glance, it's a rather beautiful replacement for the social media profiles we've been using since forever. Rather than simply listing your latest content, the timeline allows any visitor to browse your life, literally from birth to the present day. (If you scroll down to the bottom, Facebook prompts you to add a baby photo. Aww.) This definitely changes the

Building the user-centered web
The following post contains my notes for a talk I gave at the Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations at Harvard University on June 25, 2009. What is a social network? I would like to reclaim some language: Social is an adjective that means relating to human society and its members. A network is an interconnected system of things or people. Therefore, I’d suggest that we can define a social network as just being an interconnected system of people. The audience of this talk is a social ne

Social technology reinforces existing networks
Why do we create and maintain social networks? Most people can immediately think of a few natural reasons -- we get something from the interaction, or the person is nearby and is close to us in proximity, age or gender. But researching such theories on a large scale has never before been possible -- until digital social networks came along. Tracking the digital traces of social networks. The study found that technology reinforces existing social networks far more than it creates new ones - some

The Internet is People
The following post is a fleshed-out version of my notes for my talk at the Elgg International Conference on Monday, December 1st, wherein I discussed my attitude to social networks and how they should be built. My slides are available in Powerpoint or OpenDocument Presentation format. Let's take this to first principles. Stating the obvious, what is a social network? Is it a collection of profiles, friends lists and so on, or is it something more fundamental? What does the term even mean? Soc
