I follow a lot of high profile people (in the social media realm) on Google Plus, and as annoying as they are posting all the time (I’m probably one as well), I still like to read what they have to say.
I rarely participate in the conversation that happens around their posts. The comments are often the same thing over and over and also move way to quickly for me.
There are the rare times when I do actually say something, but of course it gets buried right away, never to be seen again. I don’t care, but apparently some do and desperately want to be seen. Like the fellow in the picture below, who added lines to space out his comment.
Personally I think this is rude and inconsiderate. It makes the comments look messy and lets be honest does anyone think it will really make a difference. Will the poster, who gets 100+ comments for everything they say, really notice? Probably not.
By the way this is not an aggressively angry post, I’d chalk it up to me always going on about Internet Etiquette
Uhm, yeah, bad move. They think their comment is better than everyone else’s and its especially bad when the comment isn’t really interesting. Google is known for having clean and simple layouts, it’s not MySpace after all.
Exactly.
