I too would caution against ridiculing some of these mashups (or whatever you want to call this site's output) too loudly. I've seen but never used twitter or facebook. To me they are retarded. Still, I have fond memories of my generation's net news and future generations will think similar of todays social fashions. I suspect the question isn't whether or not the ideas this site creates are good but rather when the time will be right for them.
