I can see why people use FB for business, but imagine if we could
capture all the manhours wasted on Hi5, Friendster, Myspace, Bebo,
Imeem, Google Orkut, etc. and put that time towards something
productive. It's only a matter of time before we add Facebook to that
(incomplete) list.

Michael in so. Cal.

>> Group - The post goes to a specific group that Ruben would select.
