@lukem Yup! "Live" is all the rage very since FB introduced it! Silly really. We keep playing this tug-of-war between "active" vs. "passive" things that divide our attention. Personally I prefer the later always. There are very few times I want to engage in "active" activities, mostly only sport.

@prologic in my book it's more complicated. I watch a lot of 'small' live streams on Twitch and they're fun for the exact reason I can join in the conversation.

@lukem But they're shorter right?

@prologic it varies a lot. My anecdata shows ~3 hours per session is an average length of a single stream by a hobbist (e.g. not relying on streaming as their primary source of income).~

@lukem @prologic just to clarify: It doesn't mean I always watch full streams. I treat Twitch like TV. A bit of this, a bit of that, shutting it down with no regrets when I can't divide attention any more.

@lukem Fair enough :D I misunderstood your original point then, but that's okay :)
