rexblog: Rex Hammock's weblog: People who hang the title “MIT study” on a student project are likely fake science writers

The interesting point to the "study" is still important. From one's connections (at least the meaningful ones) one can ascertain preferences not discoverable through the individual. The study itself is just college a homework assignment and the outcome should be common sense.
The take away for those trying to retain privacy is that they can leave every detail of their online life blank, but having connections to non-blank friends will give them away. It's not rocket science, but it's another privacy element for novices to understand as they join social media.

I'm not disagreeing that it sounds right or that there is an interesting point. My blast is the way "sounding right" and "science" are different.
What Mom didn't tell their child: You're judged by the company you keep.
That's not rocket science. That's Mom's common sense.

There’s a website that has large amounts of science project information. The Science Projects Store at http://www.scienceprojects-1.com. This is an interesting educational site for science projects.
