## What Jamie wrote

Powerful writing from iA about engaging in the web and our digital platforms with more thought.

> The answer to the passive consumption of trash is the active formulation of questions, the active search for answers and the active work of putting complex knowledge and diffuse feelings into clear words.

This article is a great read if only for the writing.

> Social Media is a mental prison where Facebook exists to make us believe that Google is still open. 

That made me laugh 😂 and think at the same time 🤔.
