A friendly mistake

“We’ve gone on holiday by mistake”. So says Richard E Grant’s unforgettable character in Withnail & I. The other day I was trying to get on to Facebook to list myself as one my wife’s friends and write something nice – an innocent enough objective, I thought. Somewhere down the line – not quite sure where – I managed to join the whole damn thing by mistake. Well, that’s my excuse, anyway. Would that stand up in court? I doubt it very much. Now I have to fret about how many Facebook friends I have (a paltry 20 at present), “poking” and networks. As if I didn’t have enough to worry about already. All this Web 2.0 business can be very stressful.
