"But much of that communication could have easily been handled via email, or dare I say it, on the phone, or in text messages, or *gasp, over drinks, or any number of other platforms with which I'm already familiar and easily found." - Polly Potter from Bookmarklet

"But Twitter to me, for me, didn't facilitate communication. It just made it worse. It stops people from speaking. It stops understanding. It stop analysis. It turns simplicity into a detriment. Simple is good. Simplistic, not so much." - Polly Potter
