Novacon 39's guest of honour, Justina Robson, advocated that social networking and blogs be consigned to room 101. So that's it for this post and the George Lite Zone.
Justin's a fan and a really nice lady, her adding social networking had more to do with her dislike of the total information overload that it brings. People adding you as a friend when they only met you once and then pontificating about every aspect of life you'd care to mention, or not. Personally I think that the good that web 2 has brought the world far outweighs the bad. But it has got its downside too.
