And I think social media really does map the physical human interaction...the same filters apply to whether you hang out with someone in the cafeteria as to whether you add them to your facebook list. And now that I think of it, social media is alot more democratic because you're selecting people for ideas and interactions...not economic social status/appearance. [1] love your elegant phrase~ what a delight. LKR Hey Joel:

I guess depending on one's personal perspective, the downside to the nature of social media is that you miss the flavor of those you aren't connected with, but the upside is we 'get' to control the view have based on our connection choices. Suddenly makes me want to follow many more people and expand my view =) Thought provoking post, Joel.

It makes me think that while some people's 65-degree view may be enough to get a comprehensive perspective, others may be getting short changed due to the network/community they're part of. It seems to me that it's about the quality (or relevancy) of those connections. Ya gotta know where to point that pinhole camera!
