Although I had fully expected to see Foursquare and Quora on the list (both of which have enjoyed mainstream exposure throughout 2010), I was pleasantly surprised to see that Kickstarter, one of the newest "crowdfunding" platforms, had…See More

Robert A. Burns, II commented on Brittany Rubinstein's blog post 'Facebook Friendship Pages: Creepy or Cool?'"I'm not liking the Friendship pages, to be honest. Facebook is a little past it's prime, in my opinion, and it seems like a pretty random move. They're switching stuff for no reason, and adding senseless "new" things, that…"

Right now it doesn't accept boolean but will give you a list of people you can connect with. You can also start a new Group just for that!
