Jeff Jarvis on Leo LaPorte’s This Week in Google show, pointed to the great Facebook in Reality video on YouTube, originally from Idiots of Ants.  It’s a couple of years old, but it sure nails the extreme stretching of notion of relationships involved in Facebook’s “friending” process.  Highly recommended.

For a more serious treatment of this topic, see Umair Haque’s March post on thin relationships.  --Dennis
