A whole new metalaw
“The number of status updates a member makes on Facebook is inversely proportional to that person’s actual status.”
Which, if I do the math, gives me major, perhaps near-infinite clout, since I have essentially no presence on Facebook: I get the occasional link from FB now and then, but since I have no FB account, I don’t get to track it down. I mention that linkage because otherwise it looks like I’m dividing by zero.
On the other hand, if this principle is extensible to Twitter — and why shouldn’t it be? — I am so screwed.

Meh. Apparently the people who never post are somehow better? I did get what she meant – some people shouldn’t post as much as they do. If no one responds, ever, that might just be a clue, and some don’t get it. But, if those people are so boring and irritating, why be friends with them in the first place?
Apparently my status would be about halfway up or down, depending on perspective. Which means nothing to me, because my status wasn’t and isn’t the reason I “Facebook” – to verb a noun.
