in Is email dead? No, but it’s not well on Mathew's comments
I'm not sure dead, or even unhealthy, is the right term. Unglamourous, maybe.

Email is a tool, and every tool has its purpose. You (probably) wouldn't try driving nails with your saw, and email has its own strengths and weaknesses.

Over the last couple of years we've seen a wide range of new tools added to our communication toolbox and suddenly email has lost its lustre. I doubt it's even unhealthy - it has just been relegated to its rightful place as just another communication tool.

in Coca-Cola will never be my friend on Mathew's comments
There are a very small handful of real friends from whom I would accept - and act on - recommendations on books, music, etc. Facebook so-called-friends? Not so much.

The whole idea of "friendship" via Facebook is a bit of a joke. It's nice to get back in touch with some old college classmates, but I wouldn't count them among my inner circle of advisors.

We'll see how intrusive this is. Hopefully it won't be a guy in a Coke can suit barging in the front door.
