People have all day to talk about what makes them ordinary. It turns out that they want to share what makes them weird.

What social-media really becomes after years of use is a constant stream of information both verbal and visual that at first drenches the mind, quenching its thirst for knowledge, and subduing its curiosity slowly but surly transforms into a torrent that renders the brain heavy and the mind restless.

The web and its technologies are digital representations of everything we did before in a more private, bigger, faster and more empowering format than ever before.
