If you check out the today's posts over on KevinMD, you'll notice that Kevin picked up my post on the ethical dilemma of the college student and the internship application. You'll also notice that the post was tweeted 37 times, and that no one "likes" it on their Facebook page. The story on the Therapeutic Value of Touch got 56 "Likes" and the Art of Alzheimer's got 26 "Likes." My story is alone in it's unlikability.
And now that you mention it, our posts on Shrink Rap don't have many Likes and our fan page doesn't have very many fans/friends.
You know, I would take it personally, but when we first put the page out, one of our readers mentioned that if they "Liked" a psychiatry book, all their friends would see and would wonder why. Is it true? I don't think too hard about what other people "Like" but for the non-stop political stuff. But then again, I have a socially acceptable reason to "Like" a Shrink Rap book (--I think, my kids would probably say it's bragging to like your own book). So maybe people don't "Like" shrinky stuff because they don't want to worry about the message it sends and the questions this might open, either aloud or in the viewers head. Or maybe I just write boring stuff and this is my way of defending my ego against demoralization.
Just in case you're wondering, 262 people "Liked" my Analysis of the Angry Birds addiction when it was posted on KevinMD. Maybe that was a safer "Like." But who's counting?
