Facebook.

I like it. I hate it. As a father of three my socialization time (with my adult, non-co-worker friends) is pretty scarce. So it’s a great way to keep in touch.

But I’ll admit that I’ve gotten many, many friend requests where I ask my wife: “Do I know ‘so and so?”

In the end I don’t think it offers anything terribly novel accept for bringing the beauty parlor gossip paradigm into a modern medium. I mean, we all like to have our noses in other peoples business right?
