Rob joined Micro.blog four years ago, and even attended a Micro Meetup in Minneapolis when Jean was there in 2018. In 20 minutes, we catch up, talk about how corporate social media has warped the blogging culture, and notice how even talking about Twitter raises our blood pressure.
After the end of the regular episode, there is a second bonus section we recorded to discuss Until the End of the World, a 1991 film directed by Wim Wenders, that we both are passionate about. Could this be the beginning of a Micro Film Group? Email jean@micro.blog if you’d be interested in a semi-regular meetup to discuss film.
