What's smart about not networking with friends?

There isn't really anything wrong with facebook. If you're that interested in the video, then join facebook. If you don't want to then then too bad. Don't ask other people what it's about.

Security issues. The idea is great but the implementation of it... not so great. A fellow black hat showed me a couple of weeks ago that they've still haven't fixed a lot of things that pretty much are unacceptable when dealing with so much personal information. But I'm dragging this off-topic, so I stop at that.

Another drawback is that unlike MySpace, the Facebook legal agreement required to obtain a login account forces the member to assign all rights of photos, poetry, stories, in short, anything posted to Facebook. For free.

Last time I checked, Myspace did the same thing.

Where as I agree social networking sites can be a great source for unscrupulous people to obtain personal information, the reality is there are dozens of companies who can provide the same information and more for less than $10 per name or social security number.
On top of that the phone company and all credit companies keep extremely detailed records on everyone. Records so detailed it makes the stuff on social network sites look amateur in comparison.
...and they sell that info to other companies and persons all the time without anyones permission, because they legally can.

Yup, people writing down customer's credit card numbers, drivers license numbers, social security, you name it, was a big risk in the companies I worked for at call centers. Only one place I worked at had a strict paperless policy, although I heard that one of the others has one now. I heard Rogers got in a shit load of trouble because a stack of papers with their customer's info was found in an alleyway or something.

The difference is that in FB, you're volunteering all this information and lots more!
I keep reading stories about how people get fired or imprisoned because of stuff they wrote on FB...
Back to the topic: WTF!? Are you sure this is a real baby? If it is, the guy [and the person who filmed this] shouldn't be allowed to be around children!!!

I'm curious about if this could cause shaken baby syndrome. Its a bit hard to tell since acceleration rate isnt very high so it might not be enough to cause brain damage, as opposed to where you're shaking you're rapidly changing direction and speed.
