This is an issue that just came to mind. Three of my friends and I are throwing a joint birthday party at the end of the month and to make it easier for us to all manage the invites we created a Facebook Event. So what does this mean....everyone in my network (and my 3 friends networks) will see this event and invitee list even if they are not invited.
Is this yet another way for high schoolers to shun certain classmates? Throwing a Sweet 16 on Saturday night but want to leave someone people out? Throw it up on Facebook. Now I'm obviously way passed that age and have no intention of excluding anyone, but it has presented an interesting dilemma. How can you keep a party more intimate without hurting any feelings when the event is broadcast on a network with (almost) everyone you know?

Answer: E-vite, another social networking phenomenon. Not only can people display their "clever-ness" with witty messages for everyone to see, but people can invite more people using the original invite. Talk about social networking!
