(The picture was taken just off Chrissy Field, near to the Golden Gate in a real "port-out-starboard-home" section of S.F. where fancy dogs run in ocean, sand and sniff around at each other; as their owners do the same, save the ocean and sand part...[use of semicolon questionable...])

The massive proliferation of Facebook and LinkedIn has brought it closer to the white pages than any earlier iteration of America On-line or other “services.” I been doing things on-line for years, right?
