Comments on: Sharepocalypse, and Why Social Sharing is Noisy http://johnnyholland.org/2012/01/sharepocalypse-and-why-social-sharing-is-noisy/ It's all about interaction Wed, 05 Jun 2013 06:03:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: laurink http://johnnyholland.org/2012/01/sharepocalypse-and-why-social-sharing-is-noisy/#comment-118709 laurink Wed, 25 Apr 2012 20:01:13 +0000 http://johnnyholland.org/?p=11970#comment-118709 This is a fantastic Article Adrian. Enjoyed the read! Now if we can figure out an algorithm to parse out the "over-sharing" and noise we would all be in a better place. All social etiquette aside and on a fun note: who wrote the rule of "follow back?" If someone is stalking you in real life do you stalk back? And to your point Thomas - it seems we one day work up and everyone suddenly is a brand and an expert. Everyone has social capital and uses it as leverage to tweet - expert or not. Hopefully its an interim phase of the information age. This is a fantastic Article Adrian. Enjoyed the read!

I still think this notion has some truth, but noise is starting to dilute, on a perceptual level, the amount of capital one can borrow fron another. When I tweet this article, will my followers know it is written by an expert in the field and published on a well-known blog, thus lending me some of your social capital? Or will that be lost in the shuffle of constantly updating feeds?
