Social?

The whole social networking craze passed me by like a Greyhound bus on a long stretch of desert. I never MySpaced, I never Facebooked, I never got hip. (I blame this shortcoming the fact that I don’t own an iPod.) Until now. No, I still don’t own an iPod, but I do own a Facebook account. I set it up mainly to explore the possibility of writing Facebook applications that will become immensely popular, thereby allowing me to somehow monetize them and earn a million dollars or so. This being the goal, I haven’t yet gone on a friend-searching craze, but to remind me how relatively un-hip I am my wife did go on such a craze and subsequently added about two bazillion people in the first twenty minutes or so.
Whatever.

Two bazillion….twenty….whatever, indeed. :)
