It's impossible that I'm the only one that is pissed to always hear that someone "invented facebook".<p>Bullshit. They came up with ideas that were around for a long time and then went through the actual process of putting it together, then launched it, and through sweat and tears (mostly tears), they succeeded, braving all the challenges.<p>Inventing my ass.
Why does Slate care enough to editorialize on one side or another? There's going to have to be a big PR push if the law is going to go the W's way, so I suppose we're seeing the beginning seeds of it here. However, this does not mean that they invented PR seeding.
