The most counterintuitive part of building social networks is that virtually every product decision should be to the benefit of the network, *not* the user. This is fundamentally at odds with human-centered design. For many founders, this means unlearning a lot of things.

*takes deep breath* i am exhausted by our failure of imagination. at least give me flash mobs on demand. give me city-wide AR games and houses that grow — literally. because genomics. take me to that goth rave where neo met trinity, and HELLO: where the hell has laser tag gone?


This is such a clear explanation of the famous Marshall McLuhan phrase “The Medium is the Message” excerpt from @david_perell great long-form “What the Hell is Going On?”
