Somewhat ironically people need more focus in social media. I say “ironically” because social media is made for distraction, for Attention Deficit Disorder. But you can tell when someone took the time to do a post well, thought about their words, tried to get the picture right, spent a few extra minutes editing the video. And I find that those are the posts you are more likely to spend some time with, comment on, and share with others. You can tell when someone just spit out a post without any thought. As a reader, I give those the same amount of time and thought... almost none. And maybe that is one of the great contradictions to social media: It invites and encourages short attention spans, but it you really want to connect with people, you are going to need to focus. - Cris Comments are closed.
