@annelibby That’s the really big difference now, isn’t it? It’s not just about the content, but the relationships (email, payment).
Key point here: most “free speech defenders” are only defending the right to express opinions they agree with.
Get back to me when you’re prepared to defend the right to express opinions you passionately oppose.
This is an utter nostalgia fest for those of us of a certain age… twitter.com/Interhacktives…
@liv_burney Here you go: young(ish) Adam starting to experiment with @LiveJournal back in 2001…
@liv_burney Oh, I can. Because it still looked like that when I first started using it in 2001…
@masa_kepic There is no upside to Brexit, only a very considerable downside.

Twitter = GIF-maker Reddit = search engine WhatsApp = vital journalism tool
Platforms evolve in unexpected ways, don’t they?
Enquire within for more detail…

“People claim they enjoy winter, but what they really mean is they enjoy winter as a livener, a cobweb-blower-away, a quick flirt with the elements before resorting to their real love, central heating.”

So, our glorious Brexit future is pretty much two years of sharply dropping living standards, followed by a tiny wee election bribe tax cut in a couple of years?
Boy, I can hardly contain my excitement. t.co/pH2Q5gbgn…
Here’s the song I alluded to, for those unfamiliar with it… youtube.com/watch?v=LTJvdG…
The internet may be for pr0n (as a song once put it), but Reddit is for search and Twitter is for GIFs these days…

@PaulOckenden @Interhacktives Yeah, it’s appalling. And ancient. And yet a critical part of the way we communicate (for some subset of “us”, anyway).
It’s weird that the same format used for animated “under construction” homepage notices nearly 30 years ago is more in use now than it was then…
@sweena What a lovely living room…
@callummarius Oh yes, I would indeed believe it!
