Twitter:#fixreplies::Tumblr:Tumblarity:: Facebook:redesign
This is the spring when social media decided to commit suicide, all because entrepreneur/developers can’t stop themselves from tinkering. I’m kind of loving it.
A good painter knows when to stop.
There is a tumblarity style revolt on twitter over the fact that they decided to block any messages where someone references another person you’re not following on twitter.
So if you tweet about @davidkarp and I don’t follow David, that message never appears on my twitter feed.
Folks are upset because they feel they get a lot out of these third party conversations. If these conversations were meant to be private, there is the direct message option.
The notion that conversations on twitter are private is ludicrous on its face, so I’m not sure what end is served here.
