1. John Mayer: No, I’m not to be trusted with that stuff. But I do have a private Instagram account. So far, the most number of likes I’ve gotten is 15. I used to be one of the top 10 people on Twitter, 4 million-something followers, and now I’m excited about 15 people liking my photo. I call that progress.

    The latest from musician and famous over-sharer John Mayer, in a Q&A in the May 23, 2013 issue of Rolling Stone. Josh Eells asked, “Don’t you miss being in the mix? Tweeting all your jokes?”

    I’m not generally a fan of Mayer’s music, but I am weirdly fascinated by his trials and tribulations with social media. Rolling Stone has a habit of asking him about it but then not publishing his answers online.
