The Contrarian

I found this cute parody video for a social media startup called Flutter via George Dvorsky’s Twitter feed. Even though it’s fake, it’s not much of a stretch to imagine the reality. I’m already putting hashtags and @s in my frigging e-mails (example: Wow — did you see @Techdirt’s article about how all #music online should be #free?). Likewise, my mind is Twitter-trained to communicate in 140 characters — Flutter’s 26-letter limit would be even more efficient!

Pretty awesome, right? I’m ready to sign up for my free account. Hopefully Google can figure out a way to monetize it. Or in Flutter-speak, “Sign up for free Google money.”
