One of my favorite pieces about this is Viewing American class divisions through Facebook and MySpace: http://www.danah.org/papers/essays/ClassDivisions.htmlThe short of it is that during a crucial point in time Facebook positioned itself as a high-class alternative to MySpace. But the article puts it better than I do.
