How social media killed my mo-jo



Information is everywhere, with everyone.

Condensed from reams of pages to characters now, the ‘click’ is the sound of my journey to being the wise know-it-all going up in 140 characters, or 99 words.

I made it my job to read, and therefore, I knew; a fair bit.

So when the boys sat around and a knowledge byte was needed, they simply turned to me.

They still turn to me, but now, to inform me of what they have seen or read on their smartphones.

They have the info, but no perspective… yet.

Info without perspective? That’s not knowledge.
