This Friday at 3pm ET, I’m hosting an AMA with @eugene in this channel! He’s an incisive student of tech, authoring classics like Status as a Service and Seeing like an Algorithm. Ask him about social networks, consumer product, and insights from his years as a product exec at Oculus, Hulu, and Flipboard!

@eugene You give examples of social networks eg Musica.ly where younger people seek social status and dominate putting in the “proof of work” in the beginning. Thoughts on social status dynamics of older people? Can breakout consumer apps ever come from older first users?

Many societies still value elders for having wisdom derived from experience. A social app could mimic that reward mechanism. But tech in general skews towards younger user adoption which can lead to a broad "Ok boomer" vibe.
