One could argue that the sort of social interactions afforded by "social" technology are not as fulfilling as other forms of social interaction. This is intended as tangential to your argument and not a dispute of your argument about isolat

A much better example of how this is done: http://www.37signals.com/better/fedex/ I suggest explaining your changes instead of aimlessly bitching.

If you do not support a person's right to express an opinion that you abhor you do not support free speech at all. While I disagree with their decision to prohibit photographs of nipples, doing so is unfortunately quite prudent lest US poli
