Facebook Graph Search: The Emperor Needs New Digital Clothes


I have to admit that I’m not much into clothes. Give me some comfortable jeans and a clean shirt and I’m ready to go. My better half has a different position on this topic. Sometimes she takes 30 minutes or more just to decide what to wear. Apparently this gene is being passed down to my granddaughters who, when over at our house, also spend more time than I think necessary to get ready to go out the door — even if we’re just going to a movie theater where it’s dark the whole time. But I am beginning to think that when it comes to a digital world, I may need to be more cognizant of my digital clothing.
Most of us know the children’s fable, The Emperor’s New Clothes. The synopsis, per Wikipedia:
A vain Emperor who cares for nothing except wearing and displaying clothes hires two swindlers who promise him the finest, best suit of clothes from a fabric invisible to anyone who is unfit for his position or “hopelessly stupid”. The Emperor’s ministers cannot see the clothing themselves, but pretend that they can for fear of appearing unfit for their positions and the Emperor does the same. Finally the swindlers report that the suit is finished, they mime dressing him and the Emperor marches in procession before his subjects. The townsfolk play along with the pretense not wanting to appear unfit for their positions or stupid. Then a child in the crowd, too young to understand the desirability of keeping up the pretense, blurts out that the Emperor is wearing nothing at all and the cry is taken up by others. The Emperor cringes, suspecting the assertion is true, but continues the procession.
