To each his own, I guess. I like seeing peoples' kids, especially when they're parents are creative about how they get posted.

Some people just don't like seeing kids. No big deal. Some people would consider it unnecessary to post such feelings to explain an action none of us are concerned with anyway. Fabricated big deal. The choice of words tells me that this is an attempt at fabricating a big deal. It flopped. Negative cred.

OK. My initial post was cold. I sincerely apologize to you Louis. But I was really irritated. I subscribe to your posts for tech. And to tell the truth, I tire very easily of seeing constant family pictures of even my close friends. Sorry if that makes me an asshole.

This all boils down to the way communication is done on social networks. Today, the burden of sorting through feeds is almost exclusively done by the receiver. While most people talked about how Facebook did open its status updates to "everyone", I was more interested in the application of selective outbound communication: one status update could be directed to one list only.
