That's cool [!] but should they be calling it Gross National Happiness? If you think so, have a look at this: http://orgtheory.wordpress.com/2008/10/12/polls-an

Btw, according to Helen Birtwhistle [http://clive-shepherd.blogspot.com/2007/09/are-facebook-friends-real-friends.html http://clive-shepherd.blogspot.com/2007/09/are-facebook-frie...] (press officer for the Institute of Ideas):
- the average Facebook user has 150 friends
- the average American has two close friends
- 25% of Americans have no close friends
So the Q is: How representative are active Facebook users of Americans in general?
- cwan 17y agoI have a few friends who have more than a thousand facebook "friends" but if you were to ask at least one of them how many friends he considered "close", he would answer probably none. Personally I see Facebook just as something of a way to keep in touch with contacts - I really don't see it as anything more than that. Not that I really care either way, I'd be more curious about the question of how many facebook friends the average user would consider to be friends let alone good friends offline.
