Friend grouping coming to Facebook
Social networking sites like Friendster, MySpace, and Facebook are great for keeping in touch with your friends. But not everyone you add as a "friend" is really someone you would share your innermost thoughts with in real life. That's why it's important for social networking sites to let you differentiate between different types of friends -- something you haven't been able to do so far on Facebook, one of the most popular social sites on the internet.Well, it looks like that's about to change. Facebook is working on an update that will let you organize your friends into different groups. Say you don't want your work colleagues to see the same level of detail that your best friends from high school can see. Not a problem. Don't want your mom to read everything you're writing about your new girlfriend? Should be doable. Well, we think so anyway. To be honest, we don't know much about the new feature other than the fact that it's coming soon.
