Its why I could never get down with the twitterverse. Seems like the people magazine of the internet. Im not interested in people, im interested in specific subjects and ideas. Maybe im missing something.
Never seen it described as magazine like but you are 100% right. As a game dev I enjoy twitter-likes for this exact reason. Its very easy to find specific people you want to work with (ie artists, musicians, etc.) and network with them. Its also easier to market and share your game due to the ‘magazine’ like and fast paced nature of these platforms. However I do think twitter-likes suck if you aren’t using it for specific cases like this.
I mean, if you follow the right people you’ll get exposed to the right ideas. Most of the people I follow will not be posting about their kids or their brunch, but about cool articles or things they learned. Or am I missing something?
