News and commentary about the intersection of information technology, politics, and policy presented by the members of Digital Politics, a course at Hamilton College.
I find this idea rather creepy. I guess my problem with it is that the idea of small children roaming the internet gathering 'friends' doesn't quite sit right with me. I hope that children don't become too involved with social networking because at such young ages it is vital for them to interact with others. This is not to say that it isn't important for older people to put down the mouse and find some actual friends but as young children it is important they learn social skills early.
