Social networking is...

[The Dharma Bum]

Social networking is what we call the NSA's data mining project. Google Maps new GPS update is what we call the NSA's scheme to track everyone with their smart phones.

If we can hack into the NSA database and use it as a server, we can have heck of a game of Minecraft.

I think the problem with social networking is that it's turned into a mainly broadcast type of system, people post pictures or what's we, status, etc. so instead of, ya know, being social, it's just who can be the loudest. The best move any social network could make is to eliminate any sort of news feed. Make it so you have to directly contact somebody if you want to share something.

Re: Eynon aka "the non"

Subject shows an unhealthy fixation with ex-Girl Friends and High-school crushes. Also a lazy interest in politics and corgies wearing hats. Threat assessment: Meh, if subject gets out of hand just have agent Smith post of picture of his wife in a bikini, subject and Mrs. Smith were in HS theater together, such pic would neutralize subject for 6 - 12 months.

The only use I've found for it is finding old friends and reconnecting. But that excitement is meh after you find out they are screwed up still.
