Micol Hebron Facebook
aww, look, Izzy’s big-screen TV is Micol’s Facebook cover image! 🙂
Like Drag Queens, Native Americans, Abuse Survivors, Bloggers, and way too many Avatars, you can now add me to the list of people Facebook has banned because they don’t like my name.
Goodbye Facebook. You will not be missed.
With MOOC Magazine / Warhol coming out Saturday morning, 00:01am BST, now’s a great time to “like” MU on FB!

Of course what platform peeps prefer will vary by many factors, age not being the only one. But I do think age is pretty significant. So here’s my “beta 0.1” draft of platforms and ages. Do you think I’ve made mistakes? Are there other platforms you want to add? LMK!
Old People
No Internet At All
Email
Facebook
A “P2” site, like .Re/act
Instagram
Snapchat
Young People
FACEBOOK AS BODY LANGUAGE?
You know that always depressing stat that something like 70% of communication is non-verbal? As in what the hell you’re actually saying doesn’t really matter much? I’ve always wondered if the type of content mattered in that percentage? So “flirting” would be almost ALL body language, your actual “content” would be very minimal. But I can’t imagine that 2 astrophysicists talking at a white board is mostly body language! That must be mostly content, right?
So… a lot of Facebook discussion is “You’re cool,” “That’s great,” “I agree!” This builds connections and community, but it doesn’t really TELL us anything content wise. Could it be that Facebook is a sort of Virtual Body Language? Low on “content” but higher on feeling and connection?

This was really good, thank you Vanessa. Just listening to Micol speaking about all of the things she has done and is thinking about was transporting. She has great energy and the film festival series followed by her talk was a really solid learning experience. Moments like this really make MU what it is. Looking forward to seeing what Micol does in SL too. All the best, Newton

Hey Newton, thanks so much! It was great to have her visit campus! And your own contributions to MU were also transporting! Cafe Sophistry was a visionary and beautifully executed series of investigations and collaborations!
