@ryalcurtis We too often use the word “community” to describe a group of people, especially when we talk about user base of services. There are communities on Twitter, but there isn’t a “Twitter Community.”
@vectorbabe Absolutely. Communities can make use of apps and platforms, but not all platforms are communities. A real community needs a deeper connection.
@ryalcurtis I like that. Especially the “shared experiences” idea.
@babroughton Two-way conversion is definitely part of it. Otherwise, it’s just broadcasting…
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the concept of community. How do you define community? What makes something an “online community” vs. an app or a platform?
@vectorbabe Will check it out. Sounds great.
I’m trying to read more books. Especially fiction. So much of my reading is directed at short articles or non-fiction. But I need to make time for reading more novels… 📚
Spent a chunk of time tonight at our AIGA South Carolina happy hour extolling the virtues of Micro.Blog.
@DanCookSC @hilaryensues A car salesman once showed me the engine and showed my wife the makeup mirror. Hint: Not a good idea…
@jsnell @thetalkshow I’d completely listen to a podcast where @jsnell and friends talk about baseball.
I didn’t feel like working on a particular a project this morning. Instead, I got my work email to Inbox Zero. So I procrastinated, but I did it productively.
Wow. That Star Wars Rebels Finale was fabulous. But I have so many questions…
@DanCookSC @UofSC @PeggyBinette @MikeEttlemyer @stenslandj @JohnBrunelli @KaraSproles @cjlake @schmolzp @johnpvalentine @DanaDWoodward And shockingly, Sunday marks my FIFTH year at USC.
@jamesmiller @brianonthescene Doesn’t matter. This is amazing!
@MattStevensCLT @AIGASC Thanks for coming! Really enjoyed having you in Columbia.
My lucky streak started when I bought a copy of California Games for my Commodore 64 and won a jet ski. With St. Patrick’s Day coming up, I designed a new “lucky” shirt for my shirt-a-week project. sketchbookb.com/journal/2018/2… t.co/dG966EYSz… 
I wish I could give up insomnia for Lent.
Enjoyed the Star Trek Discovery finale. So many questions about where they are headed in season 2. 🖖
I’m primarily a print designer that plays around with HTML and CSS from time-to-time. That said, everything I’m reading about CSS Grids has me really interested in doing more web work.
@kerryrm You are in town! For how long?
@zoovaldes That’s awesome. I’m completely jealous. We watched the live stream here at the office.
@ismh 😀 Happy to be one of the eight watching…
The whole Falcon Heavy launch was impressive, but landing the boosters simultaneously was amazing. Enjoyed watching the livestream with @liftoffpodcast.
