I very much have to agree. Perhaps I'm unsociable, perhaps it's because my interests long since diverged from those of most of my now-ex fellow students, but I really couldn't give a flying monkeys about most of their inane ramblings. To use a sentence which at times gets posted all over Twitter: Facebook is where you meet old friends you don't really care about, Twitter is where you meet new friends. Fact is, it's true. The one point I definitely do disagree with is that the focus on startups which aren't really that much about pushing humanity forward is so bad. Look at SpaceX - admittedly it came out of something which definitely did have intrinsic value, but 10 years down the line there might be an ex-Facebook biotech.
