I have probably been trolled by an editorial headline, but these articles annoy me. Facebook is a business yet somehow the headline, "Hey Facebookers, it's what you signed up for...", determines that Facebook has sold out. Then again this is the opening paragraph:

Surprise, surprise. Social networking internet site Facebook has begun selling advertisements to all the people now addicted to it. The same people -- Gen X and Y -- advertisers normally find so difficult to reach. Cash cow, anyone?

I guess Facebook's investors should provide the bandwidth, development cost, project costs, etc so users never have to face an economic trade off to the service.

I always took SSR to be a 'serious' site; discussing as it does philosophy, constitutionalism and history. Now it has added the social whoring feather to its cap. There is an Australian Republicanism group on facebook.
