[Facebook] is shaping a broader web. If you look back for the past five or seven years, the story about social networking has really been about getting people connected...

Remember that you own what happened to you. If your childhood was less than ideal, you may have been raised thinking that if you told the truth about what really went on in your family, a long bony white finger would emerge from a cloud and point to you, while a chilling voice thundered, "We *told* you not to tell."
