Is This the End of the Social Era on the Internet?

Is This the End of the Social Era on the Internet?

Our culture vultures are on point with their topics in this latest episode of A Bit of Culture. Dhanya Nair and Julian Yap join Kam Raslan to chat about all things contemporary. First, they get philosophical by contemplating what is the news? From there, they then talk about the book blob trend - a new approach to making book covers in a certain style that’s supposed to be more artsy and ambiguous, but ended up pretty homogenous, according to Julian. In the second part of the show, they try to look into their crystal ball to see whether the social era of the internet will end soon, following the latest developments happening to Twitter, as well as Meta joining the space.
