return to blog, thinking about the evolution of the Internet and the social paradigm shift

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while.  Been very busy working on new features at socialmedian.  Also, it's just so much easier to micro-blog/post on socialmedian, twitter, and friendfeed that my everyday thoughts go there several times daily, while I hold out bigger things for full blog posts.  I'm sure others are starting to notice the same shifts in the way they micro-blog vs. blog.

Anyway, I was leaving a comment today on a socialmedian post that I thought it was worth sharing more broadly.

The comment is wrt to an article in CIO magazine regarding the importance and impact of social networking & socialmedian beyond just for fun.  My comment is below.

I was just saying that at a gathering this past weekend, and everyone looked at me like I was crazy because, "myspace and facebook are just for kids playing around." But there's a future out there they're not seeing.

I am convinced that in the history of the Internet we will look back at Facebook as a critical inflection point / shift of paradigm. It started off with younger people but now an entire generation +/- is being trained on the social web, where news feeds and life streams are the norm, public postings are the norm vs. private, and applications are increasingly designed to interact with each other vs. on their own.
