Facebook attempts to be what&#8217;s known in the online world as a &#8216;Closed Garden&#8217; &#8211; interactions with the rest of the Internet are restricted somewhat to make the user experience better&#8230;or to keep you in the loving arms of Facebook, depending on how cynical you are.  One [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll admit it.  Deep within me is a snob.  As far as I&#8217;m concerned, the online world started heading down hill when you no longer had to know how to install a full TCP/IP stack to use the Internet.  Most online discussion forums should, in my opinion, have an intelligence test before you&#8217;re allowed to [...]]]></description>
