the difference between cool and ice cold
(part 2 of 2)
in the first part of this post, i mentioned how younger generations are leaving twitter and facebook, and how the real growth of those services has been with the older crowd. part 1 talked about the reasons more older persons are joining social media sites; this next part focuses on why the younger population is starting to veer away from them.
the problem with being cool is the risk of becoming too cool. even fonzie (or “da’ fonz” as i like to call him) wasn’t immune to this risk. a cool drink is too cold and you get pain in your teeth. slurpees and icees and slush puppies — whichever of the 900 names you’d like to give those delicious frozen drinks that make your mouth turn colors — will give you brain freeze. and, lately, it appears that facebook and twitter have been spending too much time at the back of a convenient store.
