Would our founding fathers be on facebook these days?

Would our founding fathers be on facebook these days?  Certainly more and more firms are putting their emphasis on social platforms rather than traditional marketing.

Now before you say no to another Twitter or Facebook... consider the conversation going on at Nanog regarding Web 2.0...when do these mediums do bring value?  Well in this case if you want to listen to the Vlad Spam show, signing up at Facebook is one way to both listen to the show and help Vlad get a "vanity url".

Calling it a lame web 2.0 is pretty much off, when it's actually used
for something sensible.

I seem to be trying to find the middle ground between members of the
public who think "The Internet isn't appropriate because they didn't
teach it to me in college 20 years ago" and those who say "Web 2.0 isn't
appropriate because they didn't teach it to me in college 5 years ago".

Shouldn't we at least be giving it the benefit of the doubt?

Since when has, what has been teached in college ever been a defining
standard for what is happening on the internet or what the trend in
computing is ?

It shouldn't be, but I'm guessing this is where much of the conservatism is coming from.

Word of mouth advertising is the best or worst kind of advertising. I have to believe that spreading the word was the most important part of their movement.
