Facebook and Twitter Sharing Through Apple Notifications Could Make Us Egotistical
Why read about someone else when you could write about yourself? Soon the"Tap to post" to Facebook and Twitter buttonsannounced at WWDCtodaywill appear in iOS and OS X Mountain Lion's Notifications centers so you'll always be just a swipe away from sharing. But that means you won't have to visit Facebook or Twitter where you collide with what others create, diminishing the ambient intimacy they offer and turning them into ego-driven broadcast channels.By divorcing the composer from the content, sharing starts to feel like shouting into a black hole. So thanks a lot, Apple. You're so bad at social you might actually be making us more anti-social.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/OL85q9T0tDA/
