Facebook Confusion

Sometimes, in the blur and rush of perusing my chaotic Facebook newsfeed (which, thanks to some odd choices in user experience design resembles the digital equivalent of the Tea Cup ride at Disneyland), I will find myself free associating various status updates with the wrong friend (not the status-er).

For instance, I'm friends with rap artist Lyrics Born (we went to King Junior High school together). I'm also friends with an Animal Intuitive Healer who goes by the name of Indigo Rhythms. Recently, I confused her status with Lyrics Born's identity and, for a split second, believed that my rap artist friend had become an animal psychic. (For some reason, this seemed perfectly feasible).

This happens at least once a day. Who is having a baby?...a wedding?...barbecue?...promoting a one woman show....working with whales at Sea World?

Is it a good thing that all my connections in the world speak to me from the same web page? Or will this make me crazy(er).

Just for today, I see the end of Facebook.
