Coming to a society near you

Facebook is penetrating every aspect of our lives. From posting Facebook updates in your car through OnStar, to a custom browser built to tie Facebook and browsing together, to new ways to scam people or sell their information. Even the British Queen has a Facebook so Britain can see what their taxes are paying for. Google changed the world when it made breakthroughs in its mission to “facilitate access to information for the entire world”. I doubt anyone fully understood the implications of such data connectivity. Facebook does more than just connect people to data though, it connects people to people. Is this a change for the better or the worse? Who’s to say? What is for sure is change there will be, and it’s only in the early stages.
