"Bread and Circuses - panem et circenses". Decimus Junius Juvenalis.
With the over abundance of friends and the emptiness of most picture-oriented online communities, the peak of superficiality has hit its zenith.
More and more people seek for profundity and depth, join opinionated websites such as StyleXplorers.com for inspiration and content, or combine an evening out meeting other people interested in knowledge, science and opinion. Weekly Science bars and Science events (such as Amsterdam Discover 07) are getting popular and welcoming weekly hundreds of people all over Holland. The subjects discussed have a social character, but also more scientific subjects get discussed and analyzed while those attending enjoy live music and fancy cocktails.
Time has changed, the world has changed, shallowness is over and opinion and self-expression are the keywords... citizen journalists of the world unite! The age of social society has returned!
