Is there any way to remain anonymous?

I've been "outed", it's ok because I don't give too many particulars about other people in this blog. I haven't said anything that embarrasses myself either.

Being online has it's good and bad points. I am on Facebook mainly to keep in touch with certain friends that I don't see that often. Suprisingly I have also made new friends (through introductions by others). Is Facebook the new JDate/Frumster? What freaks me out a bit is that I recognize too many people. I recognize faces that have contacted me on Frumster or have been sent to me on Saw You at Sinai. It's so weird! I meet people at parties, etc.. and I recognize them from Facebook! Would it be weird to say "hey I saw you on Facebook!" Would that make me a Facebook stalker? I admit that when someone wants to set me up with someone the first thing I do is check Facebook and 9/10 times they are there!

Is there anonymity anymore? Are we all on display? Does everyone really need (or want) to know how many chips I have in Texas Hold Em?
