    Hashtag? Really? It's not general purpose or popular enough to be included in a dictionary. 5 years from
    now will we still be hash tagging on Twitter? I doubt it.

    Unfriending also works offline.

    Personally, I'm loving "intexicated" to describe the effect of texting while driving. Actually pretty clever.

    As an aside to CNN: You just reported on a survey of Twitter users to determine the "Word of the Year" and came up with a Facebook term. You have officially lost all credibility and respect in my book.

    Anything that makes programming this stuff easier is welcome. Efficiently multi-threading a program is not simple to do in any sense of the word
