Interesting one

A long while back (at least a year, possibly a couple) I had a falling out with
yonmei. She's possibly the only person on the planet with whom I'm currently in a state of "not talking to".
Yesterday, she added me on Facebook.
So I messaged her saying "Did you actually mean to add me, or did it just scan your address book and add me? Because if it's the former then I'll add you back - but it did seem like an awfully unlikely thing to find in my inbox..."
No response as yet.
I do like the way the universe keeps me guessing.

Plus, there's the fact that Facebook became the new MySpace in almost no time, hence will almost certainly be replaced (probably by Bebo) in a similarly short amount of time. Closely followed by whatever comes next.
Plus, if nothing else, I have LJ and LinkedIn - I don't see myself needing any more social networking tools. In fact, I have real life for that too.
On the other hand, anything that inspires such nutty conspiracy theories as this has got to be worthwhile.
