HOWARD MEGDAL: As of this moment, I cannot decide if the level of sharing many people bring to Facebook is a net positive or negative for society at large.

AKIE BERMISS: I’m on facebook, myspace, twitter, and tumblr.

I just got invited to LinkedIn, GoogleWave, and Evony.com’s empire-building sim-city-like online world. I’m ALL OVER the web. You can find me on youtube and googlevideo. Look hard enough, you might spot me somewhere in previous editions of the Bard College website. I’ve got pictures in a flickr account. And I’m featured in other people’s pictures on Picasa.
