Facebook Foibles

QUESTION:
Tamara Lelie at 3:37pm December 2
Dear Julie, can you please tell me why FACEBOOK feels like the ENQUIRER to me?

ANSWER:
Dear Enquirering-Mind -
Facebook is actually more like GOSSIP GIRL in that it is interactive for the users and voyeurs , unlike mags like Enquirer or Star (or Life and Style, OK! US Weekly...) which get to decide what they put out. Like Gossip Girl, you can be the Gossiper or the Gossiped and sometimes both- but you're NOBODY until you are talked about (or until someone checks your status daily...what?!). Go ahead, do something scandalous and post it! XOXO Pop Shrink
