Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

Do me a favor? Try it for me. Tell me of the results.

I actually have shouted things in a shopping center, though I can't say that they were status updates.

But in any case, of course not. I only said yes because it would be funny.

And I'm asking you to do so for the same reason. Isn't that novel?

Since I've already done the first part, I might as well tell you now:

They're surprised at first, but after that people don't really care.

Then what's the point? People figuratively yell on social media so that they can garner responses. Likes. All sorts of shallow attentions to feed the ego.

I think there is still room for using it for more normal things.

[daemonized]

Of course. But that's hardly what garners the spotlight.

Take a look around this app, for example. You'll see what I mean.

[momentaryspring]

I see a lot of people complaining about this app.

A LOT.

[daemonized]

And yet indulging themselves in the inanity of it, all the same.

Are you all right?
