     @mcscx @steve interesting. i have thought about is not as commodification, but to try to make us produce _more_ commodities (data). >

     @der @hannes2peer #Facebook announced an (additional) Empathy button some weeks ago, so Twitter investors may have asked for that too @steve

     @der true. the heart is a part of that. but the big thing will be filtering. the default stream will soon be "highlights" @mcscx @steve

     @mcscx i wonder if that will ever come, or if it was a "test baloon", or to steer away attention from something @der @steve

     @hannes2peer @der afaik Facebook already filters or re-orders posts, so investors will ask Twitter so do the same. @steve

     @vinzv @mcscx I had a facebook account approx. 1 year ago. You can pay money to make your posts reach more people. It's capitalism deluxe!

     @vinzv @mcscx if you don't pay, your posts only reach far if those few that get them react alot to them (reposts, likes, comments). So even
