Selective Amnesia There was a point to this. But I forgot.

Some obvious observations

If you checked out the Top Vote putter’s page at PutVote.com now, you will notice something. The second most active user, as per number of articles voted on, is the anonymous catch-all – the Guest. In fact, guests and non-registered voters have contributed more articles, have voted on more articles than most others, and in short, have kept the site running well. Which means, that the community has taken over the site, rather than the two people who started it. Which, to me, is proof that PutVote is cool.

Flickr is now kinda overrun by the “Meaning searchers” – people who look for good in everything they do. They create groups and stuff that will help aid a high cause, they have contests in which what I create is not as important as adhearing to the theme, they force me to change my identity, my uniqueness, in order to present a “unified, single face” to the outside world. And it’s all getting to me. Flickr is, was cool because it gave me the easiest way to host photos online. And later on, it was cool because I could learn stuff, like photography (at which I sucked majorly) from people I knew, albeit online. But now, it has kinda become a big community of whiners bleeding hearts.

Orkut has this little thing called Karma – wherein, I rate my friends. Very cool idea – but somebody please tell me what the fuck is the point in assigning a degree to trustworthiness? The way I see it, you trust somebody either fully (100%) or not at all (0%). 70% or 80% or 50% trustworthiness defeats the fucking purpose. Ah, but if that was the idea…

Sticking with Orkut, where do all those people who view my profile (people I haven’t heard of, I don’t know of, and don’t want to know of {especially the girls}) come from?

The point of this post? Ha!

I am so bored with the internet.
