As a thought experiment, it’s somewhat fascinating to ask what “social media” has done. I don’t really consider anything past MySpace truly social. The term now means “let’s keep you addicted to posts from people you’ll never meet” – essentially, the modern form of checkstand tabloids.

Sure, if you take the worst possible definition of “social media”, then it probably hasn’t done anything worthwhile.
