But Facebook. I think Facebook is where an increasingly huge amount of people spend most of their non-home, non-work time. How frightening. But is that enough to make it a third space? Kids come home from school and go to Facebook instead of the park these days ... does it fulfill the function of a third space without being one? In other words, is it "crowding out" actual third spaces?

Another serious and interesting topic.
