Some random thoughts on this Web 2.0 Thing

Over the week end I heard that the wife of the head of MI6 posted some family shots to her Facebook page including her husband playing Frisbee in his Speedo. Apparently the site also include their residence address. While not necessarily a security breech, it does in a very public way point out some of the issues involved. (Note: the site now has its access limited.)

CNN now has a new feature in addition to reported blogs, facebook and twitter. It's called "Talk to Tony" or whoever. It features an actual phone number.

I think this is funny because really, I prefer the old fashioned sneaker network. You just don't have the same kind of communication in writing--its missing the body language which can be very important.
