KILLER APPLICATION OF 2007

The drop dead winner of new internet apps for 2007 is Facebook.
Why?
This is an application that connects people who already know each other in an enriched way. Forget about global breadth. Forget about sharing knowledge. Facebook turns all the homilies of a networked international utopia upside down. ( apologies to the Virillio'ists)
Manik and Marc may hope for global understanding, but Facebook eschews that kind of connectivity in favour of safe friends and like minded user interaction.
The NET didn't go global, it went local with a vengeance.
Cloistered we live and love, behind the walls of our own physical experience.
