    There is something magical about Twitter and Facebook, those freaks so often just type whatever crazy thing they are thinking and send it out to the rest of the world. That was so rare with old message boards, for example. People would type long posts, then read and edit them multiple times before posting. And they would edit out the crazy shit.

      Again, old forums and boards were actual communities, which were community moderated, so you naturally tended to act like a real human being or eventually get booted.
