Topic: My name is Kimmo Alm, and I'm here to warn you about the dangers of social media

I do not use Facebook, Twitter, or anything else that rapes your privacy (and neither should you). I haven't actually written anything anywhere in my name or nickname (KimmoA) outside of this site. If you want to contact me, use the form (eller på svenska). If you communicated with "me" in any other way, or read something written by "me", it was almost certainly a mentally ill impostor/liar. I've got nothing whatsoever to do with any of it. Believe it or not.

ah, kimmo. so foolish. he really felt like his site deserved to be larger than facebook and get more traffic than twitter,
but he refused to engage with the most popular websites of the day in any meaningful way which really shows he doesn't care at all about what people actually want, he thinks they should just want whatever he's offering. it's pretty delusional thinking to think that you've made something better than the most successful thing in the world especially if the evidence showed no one was interested in doing anything but trashing it. he probably could've made huge improvements to AT by taking some queues from some of the major players in social media and at least tailored his board for mass consumption and mass users instead of what he did which was make a BBS that's great for like 50 people or less to use.
