Social SPAM
OK, this is interesting. You can buy Facebook and MySpace fake friends for 99 cents a month.
Who would want fake friends enough to pay for them? I think this goes beyond the professional paid mourners of olden times. I think it's a way to make a site look credible quickly and build virtual ssocial equity to market, sell and spoam the social spaces.
Then again, maybe it's just for lonely folks getting a virtual life.
Something to watch.
Stephen.

Gosh! We've got to keep up to this on LinkedIn. I'm off now to create some fake business contacts....
