I miss blog entries that were small snapshots of people’s ordinary lives.

This was back in the day, before even tweets became so serious, before its founders started thinking there was world-changing potential in 140 characters. (Not really.)

They’ve now been replaced by real snapshots on Instagram, or Facebook status updates, or tweets. As if people couldn’t be bothered to describe their food anymore except with a “mmm.”

I’m not sure that people do that anymore, or maybe I’m not looking in the right places.
