Week 4 - Social Media Impact
A Million People, A Million Conversations
Remember your basic "axes" of Communication
Internal Operational
External Operational
Personal*
*(if it were only so easy....)
I made this up
Internal Operational (is gonna get personal)
External Operational (is gonna get personal, and weeeird)
Still Universal, i.e. applies to all
Asynchronous: Email
Synchronous: Telephone
...I think that's it?
BROADLY.
Email is still king. Thank goodness.
Email?
- Autonomous
- Decentralized
- Asynchronous
Email?
Still autonomous, still not under anyone's control, for the most part.
Even if not absolutely private..
there is an EXPECTATION of privacy
Telephone
Talking to humans.
Videoconferencing
Zoom, oh my.
Texting (SMS) i.e. Phone?
Not bad, there's some bot action here
Still very Internal
EXTERNAL- Private
All of the above.
To keep EXTERNAL safe, just use the above
External Public
Purely "safe?" - Your own dot-com and that's it.
But of course
..nothing ventured, nothing gained, there is an increased expectation of a...drumroll
SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE
Big picture — what is your presence by DEFAULT? Private, public, if so how much?
Private, a little more control
(The thing that makes it sort of evil also helps you: Smoke and mirrors)
Great risk, great opportunity:
THE FUTURE
AI and BOTS?
LOL.
So far, I'm not impressed, except with the scammers. We will see.
