Scoble Interview Part 1


Robert talking about the recent flap with Facebook, in which his account was flagged and disappeared temporarily due to a script he ran to “scrape” his Facebook friend contact data to import into another service. Robert points out that the script he ran was functionally the same script that _Facebook_ runs to scrape data from Gmail. The biggest issue with Facebook’s current system, according to Robert, is if you are suspected of doing something bad, they ERASE you and there is no review process, which he sees as a problematic process. He also asks, what does “friending” mean on these systems?
