1) I'm happy this is happening. This Facebook behavior and Ning
canceling free networks fully confirm lots of things I'd been thinking
for many, many months and that I already touched here in all the "why
use Gmail if it is so not-p2p" threads... what if Google was the next
after Ning and Facebook to go too rogue or greedy? did any of you
@gmail.com guys think about this already? I am trying to reorder for
publication lots of notes on this I've taken in the last year, I'll
post the URL as soon as I can find the time to do it.

2) There is a good "facebook page" about this, were I and others
started to discuss this days ago. Those of you who have Facebook
accounts can find the link on my wall, please have a look at it.

Ciao,
	Marco

PS: I'm not offering (for now) to comment on it on the blog simply
because all the ramblings I mentioned above are more general than this
last change in Facebook and Diaspora.
