I recently contacted someone from my past via FB. I'm working on a medical device project and wanted some feedback from this person. Here is an excerpt of her response: "...I don't want to insult you but I use FB as an escape and I don't wanna read about politics or business or religion, so when that happens I usually ignore for awhile, then if that is the majority of someone's postings and I don't hear about family or see pics or get updates on the actual friend, I unfriend them..." While I don't have actual data, only anecdotes, I believe the sentiments expressed by this friend represent a very large percentage of FB's 400M users. Interesting.

The wave is coming... is already here.. the fastest growing group on Facebook is 60+. It is important to educate yourself on using the tools because I would rather be educating to use than to be slow and destroyed.
