See the WMG mission statement. This one is clearly about people one does not meet in real life.


** I saw my own brother edit his Facebook account, so Jossed.

So how could this benefit anyone? Well, say you're a loner SocialDarwinist who believes that intellectual progress, such as inventing new things, is impeded more than it is helped by social interaction. Maybe you think talking with people about inane things distracts your thoughts from more important, lofty subjects. So what do you do? You increase people's opportunities to interact with each other. Those who love socializing will take those opportunities and spend time updating their status rather than considering a new device or crafting a literary masterpiece. As a result, your own work will have less competition.

And not only that, but fellow loner-geniuses will also benefit, since their introversion means Facebook will have less of an impact on their free time than on that of their more socially-oriented peers. As a result, progress will slowly but surely come to depend on the introverted nerd who can shun others long enough to focus on his task. Society, realizing that nothing could be done without these nerds, will lift them up and eventually idolize them. Every jock who sneers at a geek will be shunned, and children will dream of growing up to lead a company pushing an exciting new technology. And you, Mark Zuckerberg, will be the vanguard of this new generation of popular nerds, as the very website that condemns the socially-inclined masses to inadequacy brings you the admiration of those same masses. You end up a billionaire with millions of friends, known worldwide, having shaped the very world to your liking.

[[WMG:Facebook's creation wasn't about information at all. It was about distraction.]]
The huge information database was a fortunate side effect, not the main goal. The idea behind Facebook was to connect people, to let them learn about and communicate with their friends as much as possible. The result? Countless hours of people interacting with each other, especially more extroverted people.
