Some of the searches there are hilarious, particularly the ones for various STDs. Great job to whoever built that. Honestly though, I think that privacy is a non-issue anymore with DirtyPhoneBook and others allowing anybody to post anything about any person they choose. In the long run, I don't think that privacy is going to exist anymore and we'll look back on these debates about privacy as pretty quaint notions of a more innocent age. Just my opinion.

So people feel the need to go online and announce that they are going to a strip club. I guess they also share that they are going to a porn shop, and that they are meeting a one legged hooker later.

Talk about over sharing. It could be worse; they could say that they are meeting with their terrorist cell. Wait!! I think they have already been there and done that.

Seems like a Facebook competitor is failing miserably and is resorting to mass distortion, lies and outright attacks... hmm... who could it be? If only I could clear my space out I might be able to remember... but this just reads some much like a piece of faux news. Oh, well. I can't remember.

There is an application they featured on the local news that can help called SaveFace. (http://www3.untangle.com/saveface) I do suspect Facebook will catch on and put an end to it.

Like everyone says, Don't post Pictures and comments on the Internet you dont want EVERYONE in the world to see...

There's nothing sensitive about any if those posts. What a dumb site.
