I'm struggling going from Dr. Miller's quote to Twitter to Tila Tequila. I've never watched the show, but I do love me some Twitter. For me, it's not about followers (or even RTs), it's about the weird and wonderful things that often come back if you have the courage to put something out there. The randomness of it appeals to me. (That being said, I love Twitter as a extension of blogging...not for random status updates.) As for Dr. Miller's quote, doesn't a part of our happiness depend on the kindness of strangers? I enjoy relating to the person that pours my latte, takes my call or brings my lunch. On a eudaemonic level, there's a psychic pay-off in treating and being treated with respect. On a practical, evolutionary level, there's also value in not having your latte cold, your time wasted or your food poisoned. Thanks for the post!
