I have a couple of stupid questions for you today.
Who you are: I like to think of myself as a person who is passionate about this.
First, there are many people who claim to be “bad at internet”. The problem is that these people are simply lying to get attention. The truth is that most of them are just too lazy to actually be interested in the internet. They like to go on YouTube or Facebook and get their news from there, that’s all.
The internet is mostly about people who like to make themselves useful, for a fee. We have to be careful when we use these terms, because they could be describing people who are doing it for money, instead of genuinely interested in the internet. There are a couple of people who are genuinely interested in the internet, but they don’t do it for the money or to be useful. Most people are the latter, and they are the ones who should be careful.
In general, the internet is great at reaching out to people who have the same interests, but it’s quite bad at actually connecting to people, and actually making them happy. Its not like email or Facebook, who are great at reaching people who want to hear from you, and then connecting to them. The internet is great at connecting to people who would be happy to be reached, but it’s much worse at making them feel special.
