2014 NaBloPoMo: Tuesday Nov 25

One month.

Today's topic:
You are given unlimited funds and a fabulous team of programmers and told to create your own social networking platform. Tell us all about your ideal, fictional social media site.
Well, okay. Mostly I don't get social media. I mean, does a newsgroup from ye olde dayes count? Or bulletin boards? Or what? Is LJ social media? I like to adopt technology only after 98% of users have abandoned it, if possible, but as far as I can tell, most social media sites are all about mining your data and selling it on to the highest, lowest - hell, any - bidder. Facebook was kinda fun until it was full of rightwing lunatics (so, for a couple of weeks). Instagram is great if you need to see a picture of someone's waffles and you need to see it now. Beyond that? Shrug. Anti-social media is it for me, I guess.

I went to the Wal-mart today. I got there before the store opened (because of - reasons.) It was cold and rainy and so I sat in my car, listening to the radio and watching people line up, in the rain and cold, to get into the Wal-mart. Why? It's a Tuesday at the Wal-mart.
Humans. Go fig.
------------------
Hartswood, explain yourselves. Now.
----------------------
This arrived today. I want to make all the cookies. All if them!
The problem with that is that I will then want to eat all the cookies.
Stupid cookies.
-----------------------
Made enough virttual snowflakes? How about decorating a virtual tree?
