Old Dog, New Trick?

MeWe is the world's safest social network, where your personal information is private. There is no spying, tracking, or stalking in our site. Easily share what you want with the people you want, and enjoy our many great features. [More]
Being a small fish in a big pond means you need to splash to get noticed. When you're linkwhoring, you only have so many options if you don't look good in a tube top.

I have no idea if this will be useful at getting links shared and articles read, but giving this a try probably won't  hurt (much), and these people seem to be more privacy-oriented than Facebook (not that any "social media" should actually be used for social purposes). Whether this will be a tool that will help me spread the word, as opposed to a distraction and a time-waster, remains to be seen.

Cringeworthy name, though. And I don't see a way to vet "join" invitations to see if the person may be a spammer or a troll.

  1. Cringeworthy name, though.

    Eh. I remember when "Facebook" was cringeworthy.

    :)

    As to the rest of your points, we shall see. We shall see.

  2. Just mentioning that Julie Golub is on MeWe and some of us who follow her have also joined. That said I admit I don't visit there too often.
