Interesting post by Jon Worth (of EU fame) on the breakdown or gradual bio-degradation of FaceBook.
I think the fundamental premise is very true, that FB communications have become degraded due to the sheer volume of often unimportant traffic. How to sort the wheat from the chaff?
Worth a read:

Irish Blog Awards 2010 (aka #iba10 to Dan Boyle and the like) is here again. Delighted to see that for the third year in a row I have been nominated for an award.
This year I feature in two categories, this blog is in under ‘Best blog by a politician’ which I quite like as before [...]
Hello everybody. I’ve been blogging since late 2007 and have received a nomination in each year for the ‘Blog Awards’, the 2010 instalment of which is almost upon us. Each year I’ve received a citation and made the long list which is nice in itself but I haven’t yet reached the critical mass which would propel me [...]
Working in IT, (and admittedly a bit of an anorak at times), technology is never far from my mind. So it didn’t take much prompting for me to include broadband provision as a campaign pledge when I set out my stall a while back.
Having been around the ward a bit at this stage I now [...]

Obama is credited with an unprecedented online campaign
Joe was in town to announce a new [...]

No Cheltenham today, as storm stopped play, so I’ll turn attention instead to my other vice, online activism, which I’ve tried to knock on the head for Lent, along with the pints but with less success. Until that is, an abstinence was forcibly applied, since the anoraks’s favourite hangout, Politics.ie (or P.ie for short) went [...]
not me.. IrishElection.com stole the top polblog honours at the 2008 Irish Blog Awards. Well done it was in fine company.
Cedar Lounge revolution was my own personal polblog favourite for sheer academic quality content and of course the boys are all P.ie gene pool, not that we’d be nepotists or anything like that of course. [...]
Much as I hate to drive congestion charges off the front page, the hour is nearly upon us and just over 24 hours remains till the defining moment of our time, the day of reckoning, the final denouement in the grand spectacle of the Irish Blog Awards will be here..
With the weight of the entire [...]
