Technology can multiply the ways in which we reveal ourselves to the world, but it cannot make the revelations interesting. It can allow us to record every second of our lives, but it cannot ensure that anyone cares.
We are streetlamps burning bright on a road no one travels. We are one-person parades that nobody cheers.

..or on-line dating?
since you and the Kashkari guy have atleast a few commonalities, getting in the public eye in a big way is not a far away dream for you :-)
Bemoaning the dropoff in comments?
We are streetlamps burning bright on a road no one travels
Which answers the age-old question, "If a streetlamp burned on an empty road, would it still be bright?"
We are one-person parades that nobody cheers.

blewgenes: I don't think being in the public eye is worth getting stuck with the worst job in the world.
mockturtle: Huh? Now why would I do that?
km: Yes, exactly. Take that Socrates.
confused: Errr...ok.
Thought that was what you meant by;
"It can allow us to record every second of our lives, but it cannot ensure that anyone cares."
"We are one-person parades that nobody cheers."
