Summary


Definition: Like upmarket Twittering. Instead of lifecasting, where users tell the world about the contents of their lunchbox and the like, mindcasters post intellectual messages -- observations, passions, readings -- online.

Example: "I've been mindcasting about Nietzsche: he once said that great minds are sceptical. I am always sceptical, therefore I must have a great mind." Etymology: From Old English gemynd, mind, the part of us that reasons and thinks. Also cast, to throw, from Middle English casten.
