I don't know about anyone else, but I'm sort of not really catching on with this social networking stuff. I've seen people use bulletin boards to mass-post tons of articles from people. I've seen blogs that don't really reflect what the poster is thinking but rather relaying what OTHER people are saying. There aren't too many people willing to send an EMAIL asking how I'm doing. They would much rather brag about their weddings, engagements, pregnancies.

Plug a website, that's fine. But do you really treat your REAL flesh-and-blood in-person friends the same way that you treat the people on your friends list?

Maybe MS and the others should just change their lists from "Friends" or "Buddies" to "Mild Acquaintances" and "Just People".
