Its social position has changed greatly across the twentieth century, but its revenue compared to other print products has changed little.

Cross-posted a similar comment on Brian's blog, but re-worded it here: I’ve been thinking hard about the sharing of intentions - and hope to come up with something at http://suitca.se - though I keep changing my mind while chewing on drawings about how it fits into a person's peripheral vision. I feel that intention is a very under-represented core of everyday language. It’s not as much about “what I’m doing in the future” - but more like the temporal inverse of a mini-feed. Intentions have been done in little niches, like dopplr and travel intentions, but the comfort of networked intentions is powerful and maybe more useful than presence, though without the expressive power. It's also possible to click "me too" on long term intentions, creating the possibility of goal-directed communities. It's possible that personas can be seen as having 3 lingering elements - presence (status sharing), sentiment (affective sharing) and intentional sharing. Really good stuff.
