When a poke isn't just a poke....

Unless you've been living under the internet equivalent of a rock, you've heard of Facebook. Maybe you're even on Facebook. In which case - my sympathies to your boss and significant other.

You may also be aware of a little feature in Facebook called the poke. A harmless enough feature, right? Not so fast. Seems the innocent poke can lead to some poking of another variety if you're not careful, as is described in this story. So the next time you get the urge to poke someone on Facebook, be careful that it doesn't go too far.

I'm predicting that in the near future, an alternative come-back to someone who's ticking you off will be, "Go poke yourself!"

Thanks to Ernest for this one....
