Its a money making machine that monitors your every movement so that they can show you ads you're most likely to click on. How cool is it to meet your already vanished gran gran father at the age of 195? This is really community software on a high level. Facebook is most likely about to kill it self in its eager to be the biggest. Someday the whole world is going to speak Dolphin with all the different themes it holds. Be an expert on your own niche!

it can connect me with some of my old friends,
i don't talk about money, but about helping me connect with someone that i don't reliaze before. :P

I still see more
