No surprise, then, that you're less likely to see some types of information than others. LIke my recent post on Linkedin about how LED lights make our skin age. Linkedin showed the post to 69 people in 2 hours. Makes sense: if you knew this, you wouldn't spend hours on social media. Here it is so you don't have to look for it: And a screenshot of...
