If you or the other person has the facebook app on your mobile phone, facebook downloaded your contacts from your phone. Facebook then recommends friending people in your contacts who have facebook accounts.

That's just it. We've had two face to face meetings, and some landline phone conversations -- maybe half a dozen emails on my work computer. That's the extent of our "relationship". No contacts. Never called him from a cellphone. Nothing. Don't know how Facebook can make a personal connection from that, but the fact that they can freaks me out.

Unless they got the information from HIS cell and crossreferenced me.

Why would Zuckersperg’s team want to create potential conflicts of interest by recommending that a psychiatrist “friend” her own patients?

What’s the big deal? Two different people with Lisa in their address books (or phonebook) told FB to look through their book for friend suggestions, which spawned FB to suggest them to Lisa (since she’s in their book and all). Then FB figured since they both know Lisa they might both know each so it suggests them to each other. That’s been their basic algorithm since they first added to “scan my address book” feature, I get friends of friends suggested to me all the time. It’s not creepy, it’s data processing, and it didn’t just happen.

As a community property state the timing of the marriage means nothing. Everything that was his before the marriage became theirs the minute they got married. Unless he prenupped it out it’s theirs going into any divorce.

No he didn’t. He developed it based on a general idea they gave him. The end result was very different from what was suggested.

Yeah, I think so, too. It’s a Tower of Babel in a different form. And they’ve been trying many forms.

Remember, Obama said he was “a citizen of the world” — big surprise he puts America last and is actively working to dismantle it.

That’s what this “carbon footprint” nonsense is all about - de-industrializing America and brainwashing its youth to become “good global citizens”.

Never had any of that crap; don’t need it, don’t want it, won’t use it.
