I'm not sure why we're both getting downvoted for this. It was a valid question, and a valid response. Thanks for the answer. I did not realize the EU had this privilege.

It started out as a way to talk about events that were happening now. So, you'd more or less check into an event and be able to converse. Then, it turned into another twitter clone, where you could post what you were doing, listening too, w

Now would be a great time to watch "we live in public," a great documentary about Josh Harris and his experiments on the topic of privacy in the modern era.
