I was reading The Gaping Void and saw this idea of Social Objects and people congregating around them.
The blog describes these Social Objects as products, ideas, movements and people. This got me to thinking about the Social Objects in my life….
To name a few:
Seth Godin
Barack Obama
iPhone
iPod
Dean Karnazes’ Run Across America
And, then I got to thinking that this really does fit the description of something that people can hold onto.
Knowing my own limitations, and that I have a particularly narrow focus, I was wondering what you find to be a Social Object in your life? And, how does it effect your relationship with the Social Object?
