for social networking, or are we overreacting? Are babies in lurking
in the bath water? Is it bath water in the first place? Green or
yellow? Up or down? Paper or plastic?
It's A Tricky One. The trouble is when the fine line between "useful
for encyclopedic collaboration" and "social networking at best,
POV-pushing list at worst" is way too blurry.
I'm mindful of the de:wp answer, which was to allow *only* languages
and location in userboxes.
