Facebook - when worlds collide

As a result of Facebook, I have found three unexpected connections between friends of mine:

1. Someone from b.org turns out to be friends with a college professor of mine. I'm pretty sure they know each other from the Boston alternative music scene of the 1980s.

2. Someone from b.org turns out to be friends with a former coworker. They are both librarians who have an interest in intellectual property issues.

3. Someone from b.org turns out to be friends with a former coworker's husband. They are both involved in the local theater scene.

I think the message is, we b.orgians are everywhere. Watch out.

someone from b.org turned out to have been friends and very good friends with the wife of one of my big jr. high crushes (and good friend of my brother). They went to college together--borger, crush, and wife. On the other side of the country!

It's a small world.

Hmm, sounds more like a blessing than a curse.

These worlds colliding has me totally fascinated as well. Turns out a b.orger works with my former boss in Chicago. So crazy!
