We live in strange times. #Twitter is actively alienating its users. #Threads has blocked its own service to most of Europe. #Mastodon is the opposite of user-friendly. And #BlueSky invitations are as rare as hen’s teeth… Aren’t these supposed to be *social* networks? 🤔 #socialNetworking #informationSilos

My new research is on #informationsilos in early American lit and, lemme tell you, while this work is interesting, attempting to avoid being anachronistic with this research is a challenge. Wonder if I can just write "they existed kinda like today but differently." LOL @academicchatter #highered #informationsilo #amwriting #writing #scholarship #vastearlyamerica
