I think its funny that you’ll see celebrities reading gossip magazines. Yet they kick and scream about how much they hate paparazii. They feed the frenzy by reading the magazine. I don’t blame them, I just think its ironic.

Facebook is the same way… when the minifeed was released, people were outraged. They yelled that they didn’t want people to know all their business. Yet every day (yes… daily), we log into facebook and skim the minifeed looking for entertainment or gossip.

And if you can’t view someone’s information, you kind of get upset. Is it a laziness/convenient issue??? Is it a “need for gossip/entertainment”? Who knows. The point is, the minifeed is just like the paparazzi… we love to hate it… and although we may hate paparazzi, we love them when they focus on other people.
