Twitter “…invites social creatures like us to build social norms and expectations over the public commons and specific affordances that Twitter created” Mar 2009

Like the Krell did before they turned off the lights and went to sleep, long ago on Altair IV.

@mamund 🧵Social Software Affordances

Explaining Twitter in 2009 was *much* more fun

"It is a sense of place, not space, which makes it appropriate to dance at a Grateful Dead concert, but not at a Cambridge college high table; to be naked in the bedroom, but not in the street; and to sit at our windows, peering out, rather than at other people's windows, peering in. Place, not space, frames appropriate behaviour."
