In the book, I go and I meet with a guy whose name is T-Win, so it's spelled T-H-I-N-G-U-Y-E-N,

and he's a philosopher of games.

He talked about how when he first goes on to Twitter, it's like, you know, you use it,

whatever, you're putting whatever, and then he gets a viral tweet.

So he writes this kind of funny quip and it just takes off.

And afterwards, what happens?

His brain starts to go, what could I do that would be a funny viral tweet?

So this guy's a philosopher.

His job is to think for a living.

So he would normally be thinking, okay, I have this thought that's kind of interesting

and relevant to this literally philosophy stuff I'm doing at a university, and he would

normally take that down the deep rabbit hole you need to unpack all the layers between

that, because that's like a really complicated stuff, right?

But once he has that tweet go viral, he starts to notice, instead of taking this thought

into this, like, really deep layers, his cave, where I can get all this really relevant

information, my brain starts to go, I wonder how I could get that into 280 characters and

get some more re-tweets.

Yes.

And that's totally different thing.

YouTube videos and trying to find out as much as I can about the world around me.
