And @Ben: Every invention since fire has had its pros and cons, lets focus on the good things first while still keeping the malicious uses in the back of our mind.

The only people who really use them a lot are the people who treat them as a popularity contest anyway. Is this the guy we should be pestering about the S60 Touch interface? I'm guessing not.

I am dazzled by the lack of critical thinking ... or actually no by the embracement ( is that even a real word ) of new technologies without thinking one step further. Social networking and the emergence of exciting new mobile technologies might be pretty neat and kewl ( and I know how to spell cool ), but I wouldn't just welcome any new technology with open arms before being aware of the risks that come with it ( and there are always risks ) The question is if networking and intersecting every aspect of our live with the great matrix ( the internet, governement and company databases and so on ) or if we want to retain a certain degree of freedom . My mobile provider know knows exactly when I am where unlesss I leave my mobile at home or pull the battery. I wouldn't want my handset maker to know who I know and what my relationship is to them. We are not insects. We don't need a Hive mind. I could go on for ages on this subject, but I'd rather discuss specicif points then write a philosophical monologue Hello ?
