“But you still want to reproduce that great experience you’ve had.” No, I don’t. Not since I read Proust, I don’t.

The “1 account = 1 individual” pairing doesn’t work. How about fluid roles and groups? We need more deictics. #Identity

Surprising that @LinkedIn doesn’t do much to cater to freelancers. Aren’t we the target market?

Haven’t used my @Netflix account much (lousy film selection). But @rdio is something I can use (decent music selection)

Nice selection on @rdio. Might be a dealmaker. These services don’t usuall cater to my eclectic tastes.
