Facebook and Philosophy is an entertaining, multi-faceted exploration
of what Facebook means for us and for our relationships. With discussions
ranging from the nature of friendship and its relationship to "friending,"
to the (debatable) efficacy of "online activism," this book is the most
extensive and systematic attempt to understand Facebook yet. And with plenty
of new perspectives on Twitter and Web 2.0 along the way, this fun, thought-
provoking book is a serious and significant contribution for anyone working
with social media, whether in academia, journalism, public relations, activism,
or business. Exploring far-reaching questions . Can our interactions on Facebook
help us care about each other more? Does Facebook signal the death of privacy,
or (perhaps worse yet) the death of our desire for privacy? . Facebook and
Philosophy is vital reading for anyone involved in social networks today.
