Very Interesting Book

I found this book easy and enjoyable to read. Once I picked it up and started reading, I couldn't put it down. The book looks at social networking sites and Web 2.0 platforms in general and their impact on corporate and institutional structures. It is a fun read--it covers topics such as how to "un-friend" a friend and other social networking etiquette, little-known facts about the beginning of social networking sites, democracy 2.0 (Obama), privacy issues and the nature of social networking's democratic, horizontal structure compared to the vertical structure of most of our society's institutions (corporations, churches, governments, schools, etc.). This is a fascinating and engrossing book about a timely topic. PS - An interesting tidbit from the authors: Bill Gates has a page on LinkedIn. I checked it out; it's true. Not surprisingly, Bill is not taking any inmail or introductions.
