Last night I had the strangest of dreams; I believe the impetus was the little time spent on my social addiction before heading off to sleep…

Social Network: What is on your mind?

Tshombe Sekou: Why?

Social Network: Because people (we) want to know!

Tshombe Sekou: What value is it to them (you)?

Social Network: Well, we oops…they can profit from it!

Tshombe Sekou: hmmm, is that why people do it, let the minds be mined?

Social Network: Yes, why not?! We make it appealing with distractions, heal the boredom, and can even get them to enlist their relatives and friends to *bite; then all (we) will profit by this new mining oops–there we go again—social connection system.

Tshombe Sekou: Well if it is good and free, how do I sign up, and lastly do I have full control over it or do you?

Social Network: Yes! Just sign right here, and watch it all happen…you’re plugged in my friend, I meant you’re free!

Wake up!

*a nightmare recaptured. The question is what it means…hmmm
