I guess you are right. But those FB examples which I know are related with stuff like: "In this photo I'm lying in my own vomit coz I was drinking rly hard" and "Thumbs up". In Poland we had a similar version of FB done for ppl to find their relatives, friends etc. There was no "interaction" planned, except for simple messages. Soon they applied: gifts, flowers, wishes, simple games provided you paid a bit. The initial purpose was replaced by sheer commerce. I have nothing against places like FB as long as you want to express something more than "I scratched my a*s". I guess there is some kind of trend like having a FB account for the sake of having it. And for me it's just stupid. I know ppl who posted there 150 photos of their new hair color, with emo music in the background and they asked me- why don;t u have your own? I totally approve of using FB and similar places to, dunno-show you artistic portfolio or get 1 million signatures to build a bloody well in Sudan or somewhere but if you wanna tell the whole world that you have just drunk a coffee you are, as Xabbarus said earlier, S-A-D.
