If you have an online subscription to The New York Times, we recommend the story they're running on anti-oversharing sites, like Path. Such services, while they don't cast the biggest possible nets, they do let you do what some of the biggest social media sites do not so well: Share stuff with your friends. Your real friends. Cool stuff.

It's an obvious, simple reduction for how the tools should work. Juxtapose Facebook and Twitter: If we were completely and brutally honest, we'd acknowledge we are all reduced to sluts in front of computers and smart phones, making "friends" with anyone who happens to be online. Ugh. Feels dirty rereading that.
