Hmmm… This social networking malarkey seems to be more advert orientated every time I look at it & I can’t say I’m enjoying the perpetual and pervasive nature of these adverts. I mean, really, to whom are they talking? Sure as eggs is eggs it ain’t me.
Advertising as a whole does very little for me, I can count on the fingers of one hand the purchases I’ve made as the direct result of advertising and every last one has been disappointing.
I can’t say I’m immune to its effects, there are some clever fuckers out there who know how to make one think in a certain vein, although it’ll come as no surprise to those who know me that I’m a sceptical old bugger and I reckon that helps me filter the worst excesses. Scepticism and belligerence, two of my finest qualities it seems.
Still, sun’s out and spring is springing I’d best get out and smell the daisies rather than whining about how Facebook has started annoying me.
