Grandma: Social Media Still Growing
Wednesday, December 9th, 2009Just days after conflicting audience reports from Facebook and Twitter had many industry insiders questioning the unabated growth of Social Media, Grandma Gertrude confirmed that Social Media is still in fact growing at a “doggone dizzying pace.” Gertrude, who has been measuring Social Media’s growth by marking its height on her kitchen wall since it was “this tall,” is still surprised at the seemingly endless expansion. ”Little Jimmy didn’t reach the counter until he was 8 or 9,” Gertrude said. ”But I’ll be damned if Social Media wasn’t taller than my doily rack before it was 5 years old. And it isn’t fixin’ to stop growing anytime soon. I don’t know what the hell its parents are feeding it, but it’s working.” Gertrude also reported that while Social Media spends less time watching TV, it’s “always talking to its friends on that damned computer.”
