How Facebook Ruins Friendships →
I know articles like this have been floating around the webs for some time now, but this one really spoke to me. Not that anyone wants to know (apparently) but I think I’ll reevaluate how I share my activities, thoughts and adventures…some of them are just too precious to shout to the whole internet.

Mystery Solved? Web Readers May Have ID'd Man In...
The front page of today’s Seattle Times asks quite a question: “Who Is This Man?” And the story tells quite a tale. It’s about a man who can’t remember much about who he is or he he got to a place ironically called “Discovery Park”: The blond-haired man with the walrus mustache wandered out of Seattle’s Discovery Park three weeks ago, with pressed...
