I have a cyclical love-hate relationship with blogs and social media networks in general.
Here are the phases:
- Discovery: Gorging on great content and conversation, meeting new people. All is good.
- Silence: People get busy, fall silent.
- Spam: Bots and “brands” flow into the network and clutter my feeds with crap.
