I gave a presentation earlier this week which led to a discussion on information that people share online. The general experience from the group was along the lines of “we’ve heard of people who share a lot of information on facebook”, but that was about it.
I talked about some of the other ways that people share information online, and they were very surprised.
I’m guessing that anyone who reads my blog will likely find this less surprising, but I thought that the list we produced during the discussion was worth sharing nevertheless:
- what am I doing
- where am I now
- what do I think about stuff
- what book am I reading
- what am I watching on TV
- what music am I listening to
- what DVD am I watching
- what app am I using on my computer
- what video game am I playing
- how is my running going
- how much do I weigh
- what I want to buy
- how much electricity am I using
- what is in my diary and when am I available for meetings
- what events am I planning to go to
- what place am I planning to go to
- what places have I been to
- what websites am I bookmarking
- what articles am I reading online
- what presentations am I giving
- what photos am I taking
- what videos am I filming
- what photos am I taking of my kids
Ironically, I don’t use facebook all that much… 🙂
