I totally agree dude. But we will have to adapt social networks and the internet just as we did with smoking. Give it time and don't expect a quick fix, we couldn't with smoking.
It's actually easier to remove someone from the newsfeed than it is to unfriend them. Never mind ignoring the fact that people you're cutting off your own oxygen by unfriending people from seeing content you create. Make them believe they are your friend or make them delete you. My methods saves me a ton of hassle.
I don't even understand the need to unfriend, I just remove them from my news feed. That way they can see my stuff, driving traffic to my blog. I use to delete people but now I don't.
I can't tell because I'm distracted by the difference in human behaviour. Maybe I should better explain.
If there are two aisles in a Tesco store for larger shopping trolleys, nobody sits in the middle of them both waiting for the next available till to open. Those queues would be highly awkward with regard to available space. So you pick an aisle and wait. This doesn't happen in the basket checkouts. I never knew why and I thought it was rampant opportunism. The perception of space and time haven't entered my head.
With airline queues I always wondered why the British queues ended outside the door (even in the rain) or curled around corners where the other queues (because they were half the size) stayed inside the terminal.
I always found it annoying because the British queues at say an airport were normally out the terminal door while the continental queues were half the size because they formed 2 queues for the 2 airline reps at the front.
Same for Tesco self service tills. We form 1 long queue in the middle for four tills (2 tills per bank, so there should be 2 queues) hoping to take the next available computer till. While the trolley queues are all single file.
Are you saying then a single file is better for both examples?
I quoted you in a blog post I made, I can't directly attribute you (other than name) because I can't figure out the link to your comment. So I linked to your profile instead.
I hope for your sake America, that the biting analysis and smart analogies I've read here is replicated in your national newspapers for the masses to digest.
If you're motivated I don't see this being a problem. Besides we don't know until we can actually live long enough for those side effects you talk about to appear.
I'm hitting 30. My ambition to live forever is stronger now than it was when I was 15. All the shit given to me over the years hasn't had an impact. You sound like you want to die because it might become depressing. The simplest answer would be to move away and live in a different part of the world for 50 years. Imagine the opportunity to do that and really start life anew?

The summary could have been tweeted. Move along, nothing to see.
To break first week sales records?

What's important is that WE saw it :-).
The App store detected my copy of Aperture and considers it as being installed.
Floor space on the App Store isn't worth $5,000 per square foot like in an Apple Store. :-) Hence the price difference, though that might change. ;-)
I can't really see any actual content, just a page of adverts and lists and links.
I'm glad I decided to read one more comment. Thanks dude, you threw up an interesting point about starving writers. Hollywood = lame.
Cheers dude. I haven't used HTML in years.
Btw, off topic, but which is the right code for inserting a URL in your sig. I can't make mine to work. I like your blog btw, reading it now.

In Britain most likely. In London none at all. It's every man for himself it seems.

China and Germany has it figured out.
Maybe, as much as Dr Who moans about losing everybody he loves, he still travels and embarks on adventures. I can deal with that.
iTunes is still in Carbon.
I wouldn't think of it as rebooting, just taking on another chapter.
