Social Networking Sites OT

It's gotten to the point where I pretty much view social networking sites as just another form of spammers... I blogged about it, and would like feedback from members of this lists, for various reasons I would hope would be obvious. PLEASE put responses in my blog, or your blog, or whatever, but not here, as I'm sure this thread could be quite annoying as it has minimal to zero concrete PHP content. http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/ -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want? I want you to buy a CD from some indie artist. http://cdbaby.com/browse/from/lynch Yeah, I get a buck. So?
