Facebook

( source)
Facebook, a popular social networking site with nearly 500 million members; has recently added a function to anonymously ask one of your "friends" questions. I found this very interesting, as I think online social networks are really changing the way people communicate. The ability to ask a question to someone you know, in such a low stress environment is something you couldn't have achieved as easily 60 years ago. With the introduction of so many ways to communicate on-line, social standards, habits, culture are all changing. And its much easier to gather information on other people. I wish to see the trend of social technology continuing to grow.
