Facebook fare I had another "I hate Facebook" conversation this week. It was with a friend who had seen a post that he couldn't resist reacting to. That seems to be Facebook's fare: reactionary posting. Before he cooled down, he had fired off what he thought was a thoughtful response, but it only served as gasoline on a fire. He wound up sending a personal message to one of the people in the conversation, apologizing for the heat rather than light that his response generated.
