Cohost's impact on my life has been somewhat indirect, but positive. It did a great deal to encourage me to reach out to people who are gracious with their thoughts and knowledge and just say thanks, which doing on other networks always felt more daunting.
I've learned the numbers really, really do suck, and I don't want anything to do with them as much as I can help it.
Mostly I've just learned to broaden my exposure to more cool stuff. And I hope the diaspora carries its energy into the RSS zone.
It did get me to write again, and although I did never become a Poster, the act itself has been cathartic and good for me. That's easy to keep up, since nobody was seeing it anyway.
It did not make me a Poster; I'm still a bit of a social network recluse. Whether or not I do end up making a spot to actually Post is an open question, but wherever it happens, there won't be numbers if I can help it.
it really was like a website in here.
thanks.
