The author seems a bit too proud of Facebook. (Actually, it creeps me out whenever someone blogs passionately in defense of a product.) Maybe abstainers just don't want to deal with it?

"Birthdays, parties, Passover seders, graduations--they're all organized on Facebook."
They all can be organized on Facebook. (Though "birthdays"--are we organizing a birth?) Also on 3x5 index cards, with telephone calls, or by runner.
No doubt, in many respects I should get over myself. But this fellow isn't the one to tell me.
