For some reason I’m surprised/impressed that so many people knew it was a social networking site. I didn’t really know that was such a mainstream term now.

That was v.interesting, not bad for a site that didn’t even exist 3-4 yrs ago.

Reminds me a bit of ‘What is a browser’.

Did you meet anyone at all that was actually on it? It’s good that people have some sort of idea what it is though, in general.
