I'm a forty-one year old, husband of fourteen years and father of two boys. I am an apprentice woodworker and volunteer firefighter and EMT. I am researching the invention process and trying to move ahead with ideas. This idea stuff, if taken to its rightful end, is not for the faint of heart.

Friendslut (Media and Entertainment)
Copyright 2012 © Rebecca McKenzie
Let me put it to you this way - I have been a resistant social networker. Invitations to become a "friend" to people on Facebook, or a part of someone's network on Plaxo, etc...have fallen upon deaf ears with me. It is not that I don't wish to stay in touch - to the contrary I do and need all the help I can get in doing so. It's just that the process feels way too artificial to be of any meaning. In fact, what is the meaning of having 321 friends on Facebook? Does this mean the person has a lot of friends, period, or the opposite? Does this mean the person is friend-ly? If I were to build a Facebook profile but only selected 5 friends, does this mean I am a total Loser (capital L). Why do I want friends on Facebook? Are they more loyal? Are they nicer? So many questions and so few answers, I'm sorry. I know many of you can answer these and I am excited to hear what you think about my idea so let me get right to it...The Ex-Friend List. I think the Facebook community needs the following application developed by one of those crack widget programmers/Facebook application developers: a way to "de-list" friends and explain why you are de-listing them. Perhaps the 'Ex' list says more about a person than the vast tomb of a friends list, illuminating the discriminating friends from the crowd of friends. Who wants a friend who friends around anyway? It reminds me very much of high school; run around with a lot of different boys and a girl was called a slut. Is there such a paralell to online be-friending (a ‘friendslut’) and should we not nip it in the bud before it ruins the friendputation of so many good people? And what are we (me) doing to this word “friend?” Is its very meaning changing before my eyes as I count the 17 mentions of it so far on this idea page? Is no friend sacred anymore? Potential employers are supposedly combing through online profiles...I'd much rather have a potential employer search through my ideas, learn of my STOX VALUES, and my IDEAPartners (who chose me for my ideas rather than my love of social networking). How about you? Vote and tell me if I am off my rocker. The Ex-Friend List, Anti-Social Networking 1.0.
