    They've been doing this in Toronto for a long time.

    This is exactly what we need!

    Learn how Facebook works and you'll find that they do harvest ALL of your information.

  4. Re:Facebook on Facebook and the "Social Graph" · · Score: 0

    All online communication isn't wrong but giving away all of your information permanently is very wrong. Using IM such as IRC or AIM or sending long emails is a great way to share information and it doesn't get stored forever for randoms to see.

    I also like to choose friends based on common interests. Just so happens that there are 6 million people in my city, not too hard to find those people! The people I meet online are just that, people online. I don't pretend that we are BFFs.

    I'm betting that the majority of profiles have less than 30 "friends" attached to them. They would be made up of family and close friends. The reason for this being that they don't spend their lives on the computer and actually interact with people while being in the same room with them, without using a computer.

    Hard to believe, I know.

    Sounds to me like you have don't actually have any friends. All of your "hundreds of miles away" friends are just people you pretend are your friends because you believe they would actually be your friends if you were local to them. Chances are that isn't the case, you just happened to have a single common interest that connected you online. Your co-workers won't befriend you because you are boring (or a dumbass or rude or some other negative quality) and your online friends would behave in the same fashion.

    If you can't find time to hang out with your friends then you're doing something very wrong in life.

    I also have friends all over the world. I use instant messaging to make contact with them in a two way line of communication that doesn't save every letter we type to each other..

    You want your mother and SO to give Facebook all of their personal info, along with some credit card numbers, because they don't understand why a good password is important?

    Want to know what's much more social and stores none of your information for random strangers forever? Hanging out with your friends. It also happens to be the fastest way to exchange detailed information with them too!

    "and let's hope that whoever President Obama appoints to replace him will follow in Stevens's footsteps and defend Fair Use, not corporate copyright interests."

    That's what's going to happen.

    Why would the same types of images from this experiment have an opposite reaction? Images of unicorns, puppies and rainbows would give the the signal to lower the immune system. In reality, there would be no immune system response to lower immunity without the use of drugs.
