Can Facebook Save the Economy?

I gotta be honest, over the past few days it has become extremely difficult to find good content for this blog. No matter where I look all I hear is more news about the Bear Sterns/JP Morgan deal, a crumbling dollar and everything else that could possibly go wrong economically appears in the news the next morning. So how do I remain optimistic during these trying times? I log into Facebook and find out how my friends are doing!
