Talking to someone or reading what and how they write will tell you infinitely more about them than anything they tell you in an attempt to describe themselves. If you really want to know about me, read on and I'll let you come to your own conclusions. If you REALLY want to, you can ask me about myself (or anything else), just don't expect an unbiased opinion... I think I'm awesome.

Take This Lollipop is a 2011 interactive horror short film and Facebook app, written and directed by Jason Zada, which uses the Facebook Connect application to bring viewers themselves into the film, through use of pictures and messages from their own Facebook profiles. Starring actor Bill Oberst Jr.as ‘The Facebook Stalker’, the film acts to personalize and underscore the dangers inherent in posting too much personal information about oneself on the internet. The information gathered from a viewer’s Facebook profile by the film’s app is used once, and then deleted.

I decided to check this out... after asking me to log in to Facebook, I unchecked all the extra information it allowed me to uncheck (as I always do) and proceeded to watch the movie. I can see how it would be creepy, but by not allowing the ago to access any unnecessary information, it was actually pretty comical. It was just a sweaty guy obsessing over a page that was entirely blank except for my profile pic... which has two other people in it. I'm not even the one in the center of the picture so it actually looked more like a sweaty bit of white trash obsessing over one of my friends. ...truly terrifying.
