facebook phenomenon

I tend not to read Newsweek anymore after their ridiculous cover story a little while ago arguing that the Bible supports gay marriage. But this caught my eye, albeit for a completely different, slightly more humorous reason.

"Facebook isn't addictive--your desire to know what other people are up to is addictive."

isn't that true...

and just thinking quickly so i can go back and finish watching this lecture on Vibrio cholerae, I am guilty of #6...i was playing on that typing speed program and was satisfied with how fast i could type. until it posted the scores of people who were on my friends list that had high scores - much higher scores...so i spent the next half-an-hour (ok, i admit it - the next whole hour) trying with no success to up my score...and it still took me 15 minutes to type this post.

"social networking", what is it, really?
