More social media thoughts

[t-bob]

There’s so many apps on the Internet. So addictive and mindless watching on social issues
I check quickly I don’t out Facebook. But it’s the only thing to see my friends.

Large companies does sell data. The companies says “we do not sell data to advertisers” Mark Z. I don’t believe him!

So does anybody know the few companies “actually it doesn’t sell data”?
I’d like to get some good apps.. they are going to not grab all my numbers or my data

I don't know of any, Bob. The way commercials are the price of free TV, data mining is the price of free internet services.

It's not a matter of selling data, it's a matter of making your platform open to interaction from other platforms. I used to work in that for a time and I can't remember the word for it, but it's sort of like interactive but fancier. Essentially your information is part of this open freeflowing ball of stuff so when you search on "boat", advertisements for boats show up everywhere you go.

And no, that's the tech behind all social media. They're all playing in the same bubble.

Don and Peter - both of your thoughts...
Data mining and the bubble

OK we’re all playing the same bubble
Most programmers and Internet geniuses/hustlers.....
One can see everything on the bubble...
It sounds like it’s not privacy.

Data mining in a bubble..... it’s like being a public library

You have to scrub everything in the same bubble.

This is private.

In a real old bubble where it was a private network, ARPANET
that’s different
And there’s no advertisements.
