Frappr hits my social circle

This morning my inbox is peppered with notices from Frappr that someone in my social network — a mysterious list that seems to include none of my relatives but everyone I ever said "Gezundheit!" to in public — has created a Frappr map that shows on a Google map the physical location of all their friends. It's a cool app, but the epidemiology of Net viruses is even cooler.

(Hmm. A quick check shows that in fact I only have six people in my social network, none of whom has ever sneezed on me.) [Tags: frappr social_networks no_one_likes_me]

So does this mean we should all invite you to join our Frappers?

Rageboy got me started on the thing. Now he regrets his haste in adding *everyone* in his addressbook! Probably that's where a lot of your requests are coming from.
