Check out the link to catch my drift. There was one moment in time when I had a Barbie and I was 11. I was glad because I could say I was a kid who had a Barbie.

Information is now a commodity that can be bought and sold, or used as a form of entertainment, or worn like a garment to enhance one’s status. It comes indiscriminately, directed at no one in particular, disconnected from usefulness; we are glutted with information, drowning in information, have no control over it,...
Your Facebook behaviour reflects your personality...
