You have zero (0) friends

I was just doing some productive internet research and stumbled across the South Park episode "You have zero friends". Check out a synopsis here:

So what can we as educators do to ensure that if a student is on facebook, they have at least one friend? Then the benefits of social networking can be revealed. This episode of south park is highly entertaining, yet covers the essential problems of social media - bullying and time wasting. How would you react?

    What is also interesting is the removal of the "real" self from the online identity...

    Ahhh Southpark - I can always depend on you for a tantalising hit of social commentary! I never know whether to laugh, cry or just cringe!
