Facebook app can notify you when your friends change their relationship statuses

Quote:

It lets users pick certain friends whose relationship status they'd like to monitor. If one of those relationships changes, the user gets notified by e-mail.
"You like someone. They're in a relationship. Be the first to know when they're out of it," promises the app's website.
So, if that old high school flame suddenly becomes "single" or the receptionist you've pined for decides that her on-again, off-again relationship is now "complicated," you can swoop right in.

Can someone say "cyber stalking?"

Hell...we can't even figure out how to fix the missing relationship...the request doesn't come through :(

Facebook has always been a cyberstalking system based on the victims doing the work. That they're not worried about pushing past the borders on creepy conduct makes me happy. Take that step too far, jump over that shark, embrace your oblivion and crash forward full speed! Pretty please?!

Sooner it happens and that ghoulish voyeur crapfest crumbles into something remembered no better than the remnants of MySpace the better for humanity. Oh yeah, also better for independent websites trying to do something unique and useful. Like, hmm, this one.

Just imagine what everyone said when the telephone was invented. :doh: lol.
