that's true, I guess it would only take Dropbox to add commenting on the sharing pages they now create. But it's mostly about the perms for me (which these shared pages don't seem to offer), I know who I share a DB folder with. And in my particular case, the comments happen over the phone, or when my family comes over, on skype and actually some to/fro email (although it's annoying when it happens there). |

It's a bit catchword-y, but I like the phrase "ambient social" to describe the appeal of Facebook in one key sense: it's not about directed conversations, it's about creating opportunities for conversations which other people might take you up on. I post a status not because I want to talk about myself, but because I'm sending out a feeler for if anybody else wants to begin a conversation. (Which is why Twitter doesn't appeal to me the same way: it's nowhere near as easy to track conversations.)
