Oh its such a great little thing. If Zac Ethenburg or whatever that guy’s name is (fuck, I’ve seen the movie like 3 times) invented it himself, he should be given an award. It’s the greatest invention of the 21st century.
The ultimate new generation communication system that can be used for all the things in the world. I really cant think of anything that can replace the simplicity an magnitude of it. The simplicity because its just a little blue button with a thumbs up sign.
The magnitude, well, thats two parted. Firstly, the “magnitude of the topics” that it can be used for. Books, movies, ads, tv channels, cars, tata docomo, companies that have no relation with you and have never heard about at all and tata docomo (god, that comes up a lot.) Anything, any event, date, trip, photo, person, robot, dog, sexual positions, anything, anything can be treated with the like button.
Now the second part is the “magnitude of emotions” that it expresses. It can mean: “OH MY GOD!!! That was amazing” or that was interesting or I feel you or it made me think or sometimes just that I like it. Sometimes even if you dislike something, you can express it with the like button, you know sarcastically.
It’s the ultimate magical thingy. Catered specifically for those really sweet moments that change our lives and leave us dumbfounded and speechless. Or maybe the times when we really don’t have anything to say, but we do want to tell the world that we acknowledge.
Fuck, even as I write on all these uses of the like button keep popping up in my head. And the only thing that I really don’t understand why nobody else thought of this before. I remember the time before facebook: you know the orkut time. Google owned that crap. How come with all that money and all those genius guys with the weird working habits couldn’t think of the like button? I mean even everybody around the world was unliking orkut. Get it? Wasn’t that funny? Huh?
Anyway I like the like button and thought I’d just talk about. Hmmmm… maybe I should have “liked” the like button. Saved me a hell lotta words. Or maybe I that hasn’t been made as a page, I should make it. I am gonna check it out. Good Day.
