“There’s a waterfall of content that you’re missing out on.”
what's all the fuss about it ..
.. if it ain't for you .. it won't get you .. but if it is for you ..it will find you ..
.. why should you chase after .. what it is not for you ..
.. wasting mind and heart .. for an elusive bit of information ..
.. overwhelmed by the feeling that you missed something ..
.. instead of letting self overrun by feelings of discovery .. that pound your senses .. excite you .. stir you up ..
.. as they come from nowhere .. as when you are not looking out for them ..
.. out to get the information .. for winning and showing off .. but in the process forget how to enjoy self ..
.. time is money .. they say .. what is behind .. the chase for the information ..
.. yearning to turn into gold every little bit of information ..
.. analysing it here ..scrutinise it there ..
.. suffocating under an ever increasing wasteful load ..
.. filled to the brim with anxiety .. of what you have missed .. and what your competitors did not miss ..
.. imagining your plight .. the fortunes that came by .. and whisked away from you
.. only to land in the lap .. of the person you are competing against ..
.. you do not create .. you are only trying to getting advantage of ..
.. instead of contributing to the chaos of information .. that internet provides ..
.. the enormous amount of leads .. that only if you let yourself totally and unequivocally .. under its spell ..
.. then it will take you everywhere .. your heart and mind desires ..
out to get the information .. for winning and showing off .. but in the process you forget how to enjoy yourself ..

Internet, inventions dont matter as much as being in tune with others!!
What did draw my attention in this entry. Inventions don't matter as much as being in tune with others. Tune with others? So, the way I see it, as if the whole of the internet community 'broadcasts to a particular frequency'. The whole? Holistic? According to, the whole is more than the sum of its parts. And there is a 'frequency', readily interpreted as a range of activities classified according to how frequently they are exercised, the higher the abundance value carried, the more prevalent they become. Therefore one who enters into the internet community has to assimilate into the activities prevalent, and go with the flow.
'In tune' and tuning bring notions of waves, about frequency, wavelengths amplitude. In radio broadcasting you talk about carrier waves that propagate radio wave signals. The radio waves piggy-backed on top of carrier waves traverse the atmosphere. The radio waves carry the information signals what makes radio interesting, what makes the difference. The carriers in that particular instance being people and the frequency part refers to their activities. Inventions, are thought off in order to improve the activities.
Improving the activities. I think that these would matter. Why don't they? Is it because the framework, that hosts the named activities rigid and inflexible and can not stand the ripples inventions might bring about? Has the internet community reached that point in their development? That they provide the tune to which every one should sing, weeding out any potential opposition. The whole story of the links and the incessant blogging theme becoming prevalent in the posts, lead the whole internet enterprise into stagnant waters. Carrier waves in radio are plain, blank, there is no variety there, unlike the radio signals they carry. If the necessity arises they are replaced.
Has Internet reached such a state that can not stand the ripples inventions bring about? I do not think so. On the contrary, inventions are continuously brought in, changes are introduced. The prevalent 'frequencies' change, the 'carriers' that resist such trends are put aside and their activities cease.
I see that the 'in tune with others' trend described above, expresses a will exercised by people who do not want to loose their prevalent position for this or the other reason, so they adopt a reactionary role and suppress potentially innovative ideas that are out of sync with the frequencies-activities they profess. They 'cornered the market' and would not allow upstarts with fancy ideas to overthrow them. It is sad that such an innovative enterprise is overtaken by man's oldest sin. That of privilege.
