Yeah, but in the case that David Newman cited it was only the neighbors
looking that mattered! Remember that Websites of all sorts suffer from the
human intent with which they were built. (like all our creations I guess).

In the example I gave it was *unintended positive consequences* that made it
interesting.
Much writing on the unintended negative consequences of technology are
fashionable now on the net. Just trying to provide a little antidote.
