He thinks that we humans have a natural need to classify things. He also thinks we are most comfortable with classifying things at 5 levels of complexity. The middle level apparently is normally the thing itself.
Let's assume this is true. What are the 5 levels of Facebook, Twitter, etc? I am not sure I can see 5 levels. Is this a problem? Is this because we are so early in the way we use and understand social online?
Here is an example of the 5 levels:
Animal
Mammal
Dog
Hound Dog - in North Carolina that would be a Plott Hound
Bassett Hound - again - not in NC
Pets
On Twitter would this be:
World Wide Web
Social Web
Blog
Mirco Blog
???
Do relationships have this same 5 levels? Online - again say Twitter:
User of Twitter
Me
Followers
Following
?????
Any other thoughts.
