Wrong Social Media

Published by

I lost an opportunity to appear on Ukrainian TV because people in Ukraine love communicating through FB Messenger which I never open. In the US, people always connect for comment or appearance through X but in Europe there’s a Facebook obsession, and I keep seeing messages long after they become relevant. I’ve lost publication opportunities (non-academic), appearances, and all because of this. Both from Ukraine and Spain.

    “I’ve lost publication opportunities (non-academic), appearances, and all because of this.”

    And yet… the idea of putting ‘open FB messenger” on your weekly calendar still doesn’t occur?

      OK, that’s a good point. Now I feel stupid.

    You could install Messenger on your phone and get notifications whenever you get a message.

      I don’t do notifications. Notifications are the death of productivity, so I got rid of them.
